Please call 919-814-2000 and tell Gov. McCrory you’re for (1) expanding Concealed Carry and (2) the voting bill that, among other things, bars people under guardianship from voting.
The second one is going to cause a first class stink, but I had the experience of voting in a booth beside a young man who did not know how to use a pencil, what voting was, or what a ballot was. He absolutely did not have a clue in this world what a candidate was. And, yet, his vote, made with the loud and constant help of a poll worker (?) counted as much as mine. This fellow looked normal, but something was BAD WRONG. There’s no way he could have been living independently, and I cannot understand why we insist on giving severely mentally handicapped people a vote – a real vote that determines our collective fates for years to come.
I heard several mothers say that voting means so much to their autistic and mentally challenged children – that their children are passionate about voting. But, voting for what? Ernie and Bert? The candidate their guardians like?
AG Holder is going to have apoplexy over both these bills.
lot’s of families take their loved ones in nursing home to vote.
What else is in this bill
