Openly Gay Black Man Elected To NC House of Representatives


brandon221Marcus Brandon has been elected to the North Carolina House of Representatives.  He will represent the cities of Greensboro and High Point in the state legislature.
Brandon will be the only openly LGBT state legislator in North Carolina, and one of just five openly LGBT African-Americans serving in state legislatures across the country (including Maryland House of Delegates candidate Mary Washington, who will also win tonight).
Openly lesbian N.C. State Sen. Julia Boseman is stepping down at the end of this term.
