Alma Adams announces re-election bid, relocation plans

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Congresswoman Alma Adams announced Thursday that she’s running for re-election. She also announced that she is moving to Mecklenburg County.

She made the announcement to a group of supporters in uptown Charlotte.

Adams currently represents District 12, which was drastically changed last month when lawmakers redress the congressional maps.

The district is now mostly Mecklenburg County, which is 100 miles from Adams’ current home in Guilford County.
