Now that @RoyCooperNC is entering North Carolina's U.S. Senate race, for folks not super acquainted with our state's politics, here's what you need to know about Cooper and his history.
tl;dr: Cooper is the most popular NC political leader since Jim Hunt.
James Ferguson II was one of North Carolina's most powerful voices for justice.
He co-founded the state's first interracial law firm, defended civil rights activists and helped lead Swann v. CMS, the landmark Supreme Court case that led to busing as a tool to desegregate public schools nationwide.
Through every threat and setback, he never backed down.
Charlotte is better because of him.
We honor his legacy and commit to continuing the fight for equity and justice.
Rest well, Mr. Ferguson.
Join Me for an Important Announcement!
This Wednesday, June 18th at 12:15 PM, I’ll be making a very important announcement right here in Matthews—on the Town Green in front of Town Hall (232 Matthews Station Street).
I’d be honored to have you there.
This moment means a lot to me, and I hope you’ll stand with me as we take this next step—together.
Thank you so so much to the @MeckDems for electing me your chair for the next 2 years! Beyond honored by your trust in me and very excited to get to work with the next executive board and help transform what this county can be!
Thank you!!!
This is a joke. These women were sent to congress to represent their constituents but instead they’re wasting time fighting for accommodations for themselves. It’s grotesque. If you can’t handle the job, shut up and go do something else with your life
@ama_73 Here is the form. You can also get one at the county board of elections. Please dm us if you need additional help and let us know once her registration has been updated.

This explanation is nothing short of a joke. It acknowledges the fact that this will cause a recession but theorizes it will be worth it for increased salaries in the US based on nothing but vibes.
We’ve tried this before. It caused the Great Depression.

More #ncpol Griffin news: In 1998, Griffin listed Robert E. Lee as his top choice for an “ideal guest list." Years later, as a fraternity president at UNC, he was opposed to abandoning a tradition of wearing Confederate uniforms to an annual ball. First reported by @AP.
