    So, North Carolina's state legislative's (which are majority republican) are passing all these Acts (that of course their Republican Governor is signing) that will basically limit all the powers of the next democratic governor.
    Also, the republican governor is basically refusing to leave office even though he lost the election...
    Thoughts on the issue?

    I think it's downright silly and If I lived in North Carolina you would not hear the last of this girl!

    To be honest, I have no idea what NC is doing anymore. I think before I have an opinion on the matter, I think I should become more involved (or at least more educated, I'm only 14 and can't really become "involved" as far as I know) with the current events that are playing out here. All I can say right now is that NC needs to get it's stuff together and start making better decisions??? I don't know how to put it, ignore me haha

    Doing a few checks on the source, I would say it isn't extremely accurate. Just a quick quote that struck my eye,

    "The “monster” bill required strict voter ID, cut early voting, and eliminated same-day registration, out-of-precinct voting, and preregistration for 16- and 17-year-olds". Keeping in mind that a bill was tried, most of the segments that sparked controversy have been taken out. To further discredit the source, the article was published Dec. 19, 2016. This was after many of the laws were reverted.

    As to the issue of limiting the next democrat governor's power, I didn't quite get to read into that before the webpage shut me out and asked for a subscription :p

    Conservative magazines have fallen off fact checking and reporting the actual truth.

    So let's go with a good source
