We are registering voters for Obama in Burlington this Saturday. Everyone is invited--we would love to have people from Burlington, of course, but also anyone from neighboring counties (Orange, Guilford, Chatham, Caswell, Randolph, Rockingham). We will be meeting at 1PM in front of the Burlington Obama HQ (113 East Front Street) and take our group from there into the community. This is a great opportunity to jump start the general election in North Carolina!

Premiering UNCOUNTED: The New Math of American Elections - Greensboro Apr 17 - Burlington Apr 18

Submitted by NCVoter on Fri, 04/04/2008 - 2:47pm.

"UNCOUNTED: The New Math of American Elections" will be showing in Greensboro and Burlington NC on April 17, and 18th respectively. This movie was produced by David Earnhardt, a Greensboro NC native. David will be present after both showings to answer questions.

I have seen "UNCOUNTED" twice now, and for once in my 4 years of e-voting activism, can recommend a movie. This isn't just about voting machines, its about voter suppression and caging. This movie is about REAL people and REAL events, and will wake up even the most complacent voters. Don't miss this great opportunity to see the movie and meet the producer!

And Helms begat Reagan...


Arguably, Ronald Reagan's Helms enabled win in the 1976 NC primary was all the encouragement he needed to try again in 1980, setting the stage for the Reagan Revolution and synergistic escapades like this one...

TrueMeckDem on Myers Park Pat

"My opinion of Pat has changed over the years. I used to think he was truly a man of the people but the longer he has been mayor, the less I think of him.

As with most cities, Charlotte has three political parties: Dem, Rep, and Chamber of Commerce. Pat is definitely the puppet of the COC here. What is good for business is good for Charlotte and Pat ... very personable guy, he has gotten a bunch of Dems in these parts to vote for him but I don't trust him."
