Your post is a half truth, Little Bobbie. Infrequent voters do get purged, as direcred by the bi-partisan federal legislation. What is a lie is your false claim that Republicans are doing it. In NC, the elections boards which remove voters are controlled by Democrats, not Republicans.

WOKE - too evil to govern. Look at their diversion of emergency funds from FEMA to the illegal aliens they have let into the country. Now American citizens are dying in western North Carolina because FEMA had no money left for its main function of disaster relief. That is evil, not dumb.

Stan Deatherage and Hood Richardson DO NOT lie.

If I have: Tell me when and where?

On this issue of truth telling, I will just have to pull my normal "moral high ground" rank on Big Bob.

If America needs more immigrants, we should take them from the waiting lists of those who apply legally and are turned down because there are not enough slots for them, not from those who arrogantly thumb their noses at our immigration laws and sneak across the border. Legal immigrants are vetted where we know they are not criminals and do have skills that will benefit our economy. We also know from extensive medical tests that they are not disease-ridden. Those that Biden and Harris are letting in include criminals, potential terrorists, and carriers of disease. Many will subsist on public handouts. Legal immigrants are not even eligible for public handouts for five years after arrival and they have to have a citizen provide an affidavit of support agreeing to support them if they cannot do so themselves.

An example of those who want to come legally but when they cannot, they do not slip in illegally is a former employee of mine when I ran an office in Europe. He was our full time accountant, with a college degree, and excellent spoken and written English. His wife was in law school, also with excellent English language skills. Applying legally to immigrate resulting in his being told that there were not enough slots so competition for those that existed was very fierce. At their suggestion, he tried the visa lottery for two years, hoping he would be drawn for one of the slots availible that way, but was not. Finally, he applied to immigrate to Canada, and they took a look at his accounting skills, which were needed in their economy and quickly accepted him provided he pass the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL), the medical exam, and other background checks. He passed those easily and took an accounting job on Prince Edward Island, Canada. He is now a Canadian citizen working for an oil company in Alberta.

We miss out on the quality immigrants when we make it almost impossible for them to immigrate legally, but then look the other way for whatever turns up unvetted at the border.

Bob is misrepresenting who it is that removes voters from the rolls in NC. It is the DEMOCRATS who have a majority on the NC state Board of Elections and on ALL 100 county Boards of Elections in North Carolina. At the state level they are ultra-partisan Democrats, at that. THAT is who has the power to remove people from the voter rolls. Republicans are in the minority and do not have that power. Is Bob just uninformed or is he deliberately spouting misinformation?

BTW- If you did not vote in the last two presidential elections, republicans likely removed you from the voter roles. If you fall into this group, and want to vote in Nov. You better check and see if you can.

No voter who loves America can vote for a politician who supports open borders like Josh Stein. Despite his warts, Robinson at least is pro-America. Stein is a sell out to the Third World. Policies matter. Personality factors, not so much.

Biden is such a busy person he is on vacation you cannot be bothering him he is so important not like you would want to worry about what is going on in our country and help our citizens . Harris is off campaigning being a glorified VP who has done nothing for this country or the citizens in this country! the bottom line they could care less about US citizens! Biden / Harris Administration has their nose everywhere it should not be! they should worry about the United States and the people in this country and that is the last thing they worry about! The Biden/Harris Administration is being paid by US tax dollars to do a job for our citizens but they have neglected to do so for almost 4 years! they need to be fired!

FEMA is a classic example of how WOKE simply cannot govern. BLow their money on illegal aliens and they are out of funds to do what they were created to do. Equity, not emegency response is their new mantra.

I wonder if people remember the folks in Maui and how the Government came to aid of the people. (NOT) People there are STILL suffering and they haven't done nothing to rebuild. You just watch nothing will be done here either! This is just what the Government wanted and it fits right into their lithium plans.

I once again will bring up weather modification and how the Government has been using it successfully since the 1950's. Project Cirrus and Project Stormfury were projects that were used in the past that were supposed to be stopped but I believe once they see how successful it is they continue using it and causing destruction to gain to their plans.
These mountains have enough lithium to power the world. Do you really think our corrupt government is gonna let that sweet gem be pasted up.
Wake up people, they don't care about any of us. It's all about the money & power.

One caution in using this sample ballot is that you can only vote for one county commission candidate. If you vote for more than one, your ballot will not be counted for that race. This is a result of the lousy "limited voting" system imposed on our county by the Democrats. It stinks but we still have to follow it if we want our votes to count. So for county commission, you have to choose your top candidate and vote only for him.
