Mike Causey, Republican candidate for North Carolina Insurance Commissioner, took the first step in his campaign today on the steps of the Dare County Courthouse.
Causey chose Dare County to launch his campaign today, he said, “…to bring focus on the problem of insurance in the coastal counties” |
|
Premiums for household insurance, especially windstorm insurance, have skyrocketed in recent years in eastern North Carolina, worse yet in the coastal counties.
|
Causey, who ran for the office previously, said he was urged by North Carolina Republican leaders to seek the office this year because of widespread and bipartisan criticism of how the State Office of Insurance has been administered. |
Causey intends to visit all of North Carolina’s 100 counties with a particular emphasis on eastern North Carolina.
Local business and party leaders attended Causey’s kickoff news conference. Dare GOP Chairman Pat Patterson and several party members welcomed Mr. Causey to Dare County.
