If their biggest donors call it a win, it wasn’t built to help you. Three amendments on your ballot this November, dressed up as relief, protection, and security. Vote AGAINST them all.

Donald said some nasty things about North Carolina. Do North Carolina Republicans agree with him? We’ll wait. 🧐

Michael Whatley won’t rein in the chaos; it’s the very thing bankrolling his Big Oil retirement plan.

Republicans in Congress could end this war and save American lives and money. They just won’t.

This amendment isn’t about election security. It’s a clause that hands Republicans the power to decide which votes they think should count. Voting NO protects the votes of Military, student, rural, and older voters. Stand with them and VOTE NO to all constitutional amendments!

John Arrowood is committed to defending democracy and equal justice in N.C. But Republicans, trying to increase their already heavy majority on the Court of Appeals, have targeted his seat. Stand with Judge Arrowood at an event here in Buncombe County: bit.ly/4iuqYyO

Twenty-five years ago, our nation stood still. Today, we pause to remember the lives lost, the heroes who ran in, and the families who still carry September 11th with them every day. We will never forget.

Confused about voting? We got you! Republicans have made it harder than ever to cast a ballot, so we made it easier to get answers. Our voter hotline is here 24/7 for whatever questions you’ve got. Don’t let them silence your vote.

This isn’t the tax relief working families deserve. It’s a giveaway to corporate giants and Republicans are hoping you won’t notice. Vote NO and pass this on. It’s not worth the $7.

Folks, you can vote for someone who fights to protect your rights, or for someone who strips them away while protecting pedophiles. The choice is clear. Re-elect Justice Anita Earls this November.

While families are paying more for groceries, utilities, and everyday things, the president is profiting off his memecoin sketchy deals with foreign governments and corporations. Donald Trump got richer, but we got the bill.

HB958 would limit early voting and make it easier to challenge ballots after votes have already been counted. Republicans are scared of their own voters, but North Carolina Democrats will always stand up for your right to cast a ballot.

School bells are ringing, and kids are walking into classrooms that still don’t meet their needs. With the cost of supplies, fuel, and food on the rise, families are stuck paying nearly $4,000 a kid just to get through the door. This is what Republican leadership looks like. 🚨

Senator Elizabeth Warren gave an incredible speech at the Unity Dinner AND dropped ONE MILLION dollars in support of Democratic state parties like North Carolina. She’s not just talking the talk, she’s funding the fight.
