Audit Flags Grant Issues; $71M Pours Into Senate Race
Description
A new North Carolina audit of federal grants has flagged cost overruns and reporting concerns, raising questions about oversight and accountability in how funds are managed. Hurricane Helene recovery remains a major focus, with $60 billion in damage far exceeding available aid, even as Rutherford County receives $9.39 million in reimbursements and DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin plans a visit to the Asheville area. In politics, a GOP Super PAC is committing $71 million to support Michael Whatley as the U.S. Senate race intensifies. Meanwhile, the State Auditor will take on an oversight role in Charlotte’s $650 million stadium renovation project, adding scrutiny to one of the city’s largest investments.
