Thanks for the reminder - some of us will have only one race on the ballot - NC Supreme Court - but that is a critical one.

You're welcome. Please share with people in media, etc if you can. I also got this from my friend's FB post, otherwise I'd not realize it exist at all.

You can do early voting at your designated voting place this Saturday, if you'll be busy on the weekdays.

Look at the map so you can ignore certain political ads!
Holly Springs and Cary, for example are in different districts.

NCGA - District Map Viewer

Would love to see some exit polls on number of surprised folks who thought they would see Ellmers on their ballot.

Thank you for letting me know, as I did not realize it. There are some explanations of who the candidates are here:

by the way, from the op-ed piece originally linked, the new districts have been upheld by at least one judge.

I was not aware that NC Supreme Court was a partisan position.

It's not but Edmunds campaigns as if it is. See the link I provided in post #6 //www.city-data.com/forum/north...ressional.html

This is all good information! Thank you! Please share the info about the voting on your social media. I wouldn't know if I didn't see someone's post about it.

from the link ...

justices on the North Carolina Supreme Court to seek re-election in retention elections rather than in nonpartisan competitive elections, effective in 2016.


of course some folks tend to vote one way or the other in their own private lives. But the position is indeed done as non-partisan. Is Edmunds campaigning as a Republican?
