North Carolina schools chief loses Republican primary to home-schooling parent critical of ‘radical agendas’

Michele Morrow wins North Carolina Republican primary over Superintendent Catherine Truitt


North Carolina Superintendent of Public Instruction Catherine Truitt lost Tuesday's Republican primary to Michele Morrow, a home-schooling parent critical of public schools' "radical agendas" on race and gender ideology.

Morrow, a nurse and former Christian missionary who ran unsuccessfully for the Wake County school board in 2022, garnered 52% of the vote Tuesday, while the incumbent Truitt tallied 48%, WTVD reported.

The Super Tuesday upset came despite Truitt's sizable fundraising advantages and GOP establishment support.

Morrow, a supporter of former President Trump who accused Truitt of not being conservative enough, collected backing from rural education leaders and will now take on Democrat Maurice "Mo" Green in November.

It's that "GOP establishment support" that gets me. I'm also disappointed in North Kakalakans that the vote was that close. It should have been a blowout...unless they were busing voters in like the Demonrats typically do. Actually, the Demonrats probably showed up en masse to vote for Truitt. That's an established pattern, the last few election cycles.
