1991 - Majeed Elected to City Council

1991 - Majeed is elected to the city council.

  • Nasif Majeed, a prominent Charlotte entrepreneur, lost the 1988 and the 1990 county commission elections to Bob Walton in the most bitterly-fought battles in the history of the African American community. 
  • While Majeed’s religion was an issue, Walton’s legal difficulties lost him many supporters. 
  • In 1991 Majeed decides to run for city council.
