Turner not diving into the 28th

Denise Turner, who worked for Congressman Brad Miller and is currently with the Greensboro Partnership took at look at running in Senate District 28, which already features a Democratic Primary between incumbent Katie Dorsett and Bruce Davis.

She created a campaign committee in December.

But she has backed off a run.

"I was looking at the seat when there was a good deal of speculation about Sen. Dorsett not seeking re-election," Turner said. When Dorsett announced a run, Turner said she cancelled her plans.

"I decided I would wait for my time," she said.

Turner formed the campaign committee to account for a poll she conducted in mid-Decmeber comparing her to other potential challengers for Dorsett's seat, including Rep. Alma Adams and Davis. Adams has said she will seek re-election to her House seat.
