Mooresville Commissioners Lose Confidence in Mayor Carney

0:00It's April 7, I'm Cory with the story, and this is Durham News Today, local news powered by AI. In Moore'sville, North Carolina, the Board of Commissioners voted 4-2 on Monday night to express no confidence in Mayor Chris Carney and Urge. Him to resign. The move ties back to surveillance video from Town Hall, showing the mayor with a woman in the early morning hours of October 11, 2024. Here this year, a lawyer pushed a judge in March to release that footage under the state's public records law, arguing it's fair game for the public. Commissioners laid it out plain, one called public confidence completely shattered, while another stressed that trust forms the bedrock of local government. A packed crowd at Town Hall erupted in applause after the vote passed. Carney addressed the audience with an apology before heading to a back room during the discussion. He skipped comments to reporters afterward, but said he'd speak more on Tuesday. We'll see what Carney drops next and how this shakes out for Moore'sville leadership.
