You should be ashamed of yourselves. As a lifetime resident of North Carolina, I can honestly say that this is the most embarrassed I have been to admit this is my home.
You are elected to be the voice of the people of North Carolina. Your job is to speak for us all. Not just for yourself. This attempt to sneak in legislation under the table, to "revise" the election process, and strip one particular Governor of power is just... sad.
Here's a thought: How about instead of warping the structure of our state government to suit your own needs, you actually try working with your political rivals? How about instead of trying to suppress the voice of the people, you listen, consider what they have to say, and then come to a COMPROMISE? How about putting what's best for our state above your own personal desire for power?
You all in Raleigh have pulled some pretty despicable stunts in the last few years, but this... This is really a new low for you.
I cannot wait for the next election with new electoral maps. When you are back to being an ordinary citizen, you can see how it feels to have your will and your voice completely negated. It's infuriating. While I don't wish you personal ill, I vehemently wish that you lose your job to someone who is willing to do the hard work of governance.
I'm disappointed in all of you - regardless of party.
