Donnan picks up endorsements


Mary Fant DonnanMary Fant Donnan has picked up more endorsements.

The candidate for the Democratic nomination for state labor commissioner was endorsed last week by the N.C. Academy of Trial Lawyers, the Durham Committee for the Affairs of Black People and the N.C. Association of Educators.

"I'm honored to have received the endorsement of all of these organizations," she said in a statement. "I think this shows that people know we need to move the Labor Department in a new direction and feel I'm the best qualified candidate to do that."

Previously, Donnan was endorsed by the AFL-CIO, former Labor Commissioner Harry Payne and two former Democratic opponents.

She faces former Labor Commissioner John C. Brooks in a primary runoff on June 24.
