Sandra Hughes Chosen to Replace Wright
Burgaw | Sandra Spaulding Hughes is going to the General Assembly.
The former Wilmington councilwoman was named Thursday night as the new representative of District 18, filling the void created by Thomas Wright’s historic expulsion last month. Wright was kicked out of the House for allegedly bilking businesses and donors out of nearly $350,000.
“I am elated,” Hughes said. “The community is now going to say we have someone in the position.”
