Greensboro News-Record: N.C. House votes down smoking ban
Papers are reporting: "The state House rejected a measure that would have outlawed smoking in restaurants and allowed local governments to set their own local smoking laws.
The vote Wednesday afternoon was 55-61.
Guilford County Reps. Alma Adams, Pricey Harrison and Maggie Jeffus, all Democrats, supported the bill.
The other three Guilford representatives — Democrat Earl Jones and Republicans John Blust and Laura Wiley — voted against the measure. "
