By having the convention in Charlotte, we can rid ourselves of the rethug legislature, draw attention to all that's gone down this session, and turn this state a definite strong purple to light blue, We need the attention, the press, the money, and the outpouring of support for turning back the retrogressive policies and redistricting that could seriously harm the number of STRONG democrats that we send to the house in DC.

Care for more Virginia Foxxes: More Renee Ellers?

I want BOTH Brad Miller and David Price (NC-13 and NC-4) to return to congress, We need them BOTH. One liberal, and one strong behind- the scenes fiscal policy wonk. As of this NC leg. Session, the redistricting has them facing off. Only one will return to DC,

Currently, NC's delegation is (IIRC) 7-6 D-E, With the current plan- could be as bad as 10R=3D

Not a good way to take back the house. We need national attention.

Charlotte is a great city. 25th largest media market. Raleigh-Durham is 24th,

Welcome to North Carolina- a state that is in definite transition to one that can be a democratic stronghold... if people would only let it.
