MISSION STATEMENT

We, the Grassroots Republicans, call on ALL legislators to vote for fair and constitutional redistricting plans. These plans will "level the playing field" for Republicans for the decade. We the voters will be able to choose our own representatives instead of allowing the lawmakers to choose them for us.

HELP SEND A STRONG MESSAGE!

Redistricting Session called late Sat. for 9:30 AM.

Expect House Demo/RINO coalition and Senate Demo (Rand) to overplay hand again. Even if they violate existing case law, vainly hoping to re-try the Stephenson case, an end-game is to DELAY the PRIMARY.

Senate GOP, to take the lead in offering Majority last oportunity to avoid a Court battle.

Come out for the Constitution

[SCHROLL]

Try and get the Dem's to explain why Mel Watt's district still exists when it's clearly against the mandates of the NC Constitution. It should be good for a laugh or two.

Ladies & Gentlemen,

It is of strong interest to me to know when the filing deadline for North Carolina will be, since I am cranking up to run for the 11th District in Congress. As I understand it, congressional districts are not affected by the change in the law. However, the filing deadline should be moving closer to the fall, since it is unconstitutional to require state candidates to file for office before the district lines have been set.

Please be kind enough to ping me with information on the filing deadline as it appears in the proposed law.

Thank you very much.

Good luck. The NC redistricting case shows why we need to elect quality conservatives in the primaries. "Moderates" should only be a last resort.

Richard Morgan, Michael Decker and the RINOS need primary challenges.

Prolly has something to do with federal law, doncha think? Voting Rights Act, and all that?

Judge Jenkins ruled that counties should not be split except when necessary (to have districts of equal population) or to comply with federal law.
