How well do North Carolinians know the state's constitution?On this Charlotte Talks, we talk about our state constitution. Fewer than 1 in 10 North Carolinians say they are familiar with what our constitution outlines. One in 5 admits they are not at all familiar with it. This comes from a survey conducted by YouGov, and we dig into the results, take a closer look at our state constitution and its impact on our daily lives.
