If a NC voter missed last Friday's deadline for registering to vote, have no fear:
You can "Same Day Register" during in-person early voting (Thursday, Oct. 20 thru Sat, Nov. 5) *and* cast your absentee onestop (in-person) ballot at the same time: https://t.co/acpTGneEzO#ncpolhttps://t.co/N9k6ffPAaU
And there are considerably more early voting sites this year than the last mid-term election. But you should go early (early), because there will likely be long lines. Gerry has a link to all the locations right here:
The deadline to register for the 2022 Mid-Term Elections is this Friday. If you have moved (even just a block away) you need to update your registration. If you miss that deadline you can still same-day register & vote at early voting locations, but it's best to do it ahead of time.
They will not stop trying to disenfranchise voters in NC. We can be better than this. Check on your friends and neighbors…make sure they are registered and encourage every one of them to vote. #TurnNCBlue for a brighter future. #ncpolhttps://t.co/XmSuGmkBIi
Which is why I do my best to ignore polls, of any sort. Half of them are push-polls, nudging people to choose a particular opinion, and others give you a "middle of the road" option that is not present on the real ballot. And a false sense of security (or insecurity) does not help anyone.
MAGA forces are determined to take this country backwards to an America where there is no right to choose, no right to privacy, no right to contraception, no right to marry who you love.
But together, we can choose a different path forward.
“Our children need action now. We must not lose any more time — another generation of students — before we do what is right by them,” said Tamika Walker Kelly, president of the North Carolina Association of Educators. https://t.co/nWAxuhiQg6#nced#ncpol#LeadwithLeandro#ncga
Nothing short of infuriating. Insulin costs about ten bucks (per vial) to make, but they've been selling it for $300+. That's after all the outrage a few years ago when they jacked up the price to near $700. Capping that price would save untold lives every year, but Republicans just don't care.
The last few days have been hard. But know that as long as I’m Governor, and voters keep enough Democrats in the legislature this November to sustain my veto, we will protect women’s reproductive freedom in North Carolina.
