Thoughts on the new map
I don’t know how SOME of these new districts will pass muster in court. I’ve had problems with the current districts. What do people in Johnston County have in common with people in Brunswick County, issue-wise? It was well known at the time of…
New map: A dilemma for ‘Public Official A’?
One milestone most people in politics TRY to avoid is getting mentioned in indictment documents — federal or otherwise. In his short career in DC, congressman Mark Walker has already achieved JUST THAT. Drive-by reports indicate that the new congressional maps definitely…
Drive-by slimeball bias-meisters tip their hand, show us ‘how it’s done’
“False testimony in North Carolina gerrymandering trial? Judges exclude GOP expert witness claims.” That’s the McClatchy headline. Were Republicans caught lying under oath? Let’s read further, shall we? : The trial challenging North Carolina’s legislative lines as unconstitutional, partisan gerrymanders took a dramatic…
The perils of not paying close attention to your local school board

It’s been interesting to see and hear all of the North Carolina Republican big-wigs tearing Judge James Wynn a new one for his ruling against North Carolina’s congressional districts. (Case in point, see below.) Of course, we agree with Mr. Blaine on his assessment. We…
McCrory putting the shiv to Raleigh Republicans
They hated his guts while he was governor. But ol’ Pat sure is giving the lefties what they need these days. Exhibit 1: McCrory has teamed up with the other living former governors (Hunt, Easley, Perdue, Martin) to publicly campaign AGAINST two of the constitutional…
#ncpol: “Republican” Charles Jeter teams w/ Common Cause re:”gerrymandering”
Charlie Jeter. During his time in the House, he racked up a record as the most liberal Republican. Yet, he got elected conference chairman and was a close ally of Speakers Thom Tillis and Tim Moore. Ol’ Charlie would regularly screw his GOP colleagues on…
#ncga: New maps. (Hmm …. )
