A few of my regular readers might remember the story about the 2004 election for North Carolina Superintendent of Public Schools. This is the only election contest for the 2004 election in the entire country that has not been decided -- and the election STILL is not over.

At issue are some at least 11,310 ballots that are illegal ballots. The North Carolina Supreme Court very clearly determined and decided that those ballots were illegal. In case you glossed over that, I'll repeat it. The Supreme Court of North Carolina already decided that the 11,310 ballots ARE illegal. But this is North Carolina.

You see, the candidate that is leading by just 8,000 votes is a Democrat. And this state is run by iron-fist Democrats who care only for themselves and power, and really do not give a damn what the people of the state think or want. Therefore, the legislature tried to change the rules of the election after the election.

So now, a legislative committee is holding fake "hearings" to determine the result of the election. The alleged "committee" meeting is pointless, as there is exactly a 100% chance they will suggest to the legislature that the Democrat should be declared the winner. There is also a 100% chance the legislature will "vote" to decide the Democrat should win, since the legislature is gerrymandered to be Democrat.

It won't really make any difference, but feel free to watch as the legislature overrides legal votes of the voters to give another Democrat a position of power because they really don't care what you, the voters, wanted. I only hope the Republicans have the guts to hold a party-line vote to oppose them -- but I imagine many RINOs will vote with the Dems so they can claim it was a bi-partisan vote -- and those who dare to not vote with Jim Black and Democrats WILL be punished, I assure you.

Do you still like voting Democrat in North Carolina?

2 Or just completely cheat. No one outside politics seems to notice or care.

4 And taxes are about to be jacked up, certainly to pay for more of Black's pet projects.
