Friday Interview: Third Parties in North Carolina

RALEIGH — North Carolina voters faced more than just the familiar choices of Democrat and Republican in the state’s major 2008 elections.

Munger, a Duke University political scientist, recently discussed third-party politics with Mitch Kokai for Carolina Journal Radio.
