The 2nd district is a perfect example of what a Democratic run state government can do to stay in power long after they have upset enough voters to loose power. Remapping congressional districts happens all over the country, but this one is way over the top. The other 3 states I have lived in are no where near as corrupt as North Carolina is. Our former speaker of the state house is serving out a sentence that should keep him behinds bars until he dies.(Bush's fault) Our former governor is currently being investigated by the Fed for ethics violations. Since the Fed is controlled by the Democrats, I'm not holding my breath over it.
