9. Actually, more Democratic votes were cast in that election than one would expect.

Because of gerrymandering our votes as Democrats didn't carry the weight they would have otherwise. It's a sad state of affairs.

I suspect that many of the Independent voters may lean toward the Libertarian side, too.

We're very fortunate to have Governor Cooper. He was a great Attorney General for NC and all things considered, I think he's doing a great job as Governor.

Of course, with our current problems seemingly never-ending, it's not hard to see how some are having trouble finding solace.

We just need to hold on to the future being a better time and keep the faith.
