On this week's North Carolina News Roundup, the Board of Elections finalizes early voting plans in disputed districts, ending open polls on Sundays in some counties. Elon University releases a new poll that shows wide support for former governor Roy Cooper in the upcoming U.S. Senate race. And while youth violence is on the rise across the state, law enforcement and community stakeholders seek solutions.
