Greensboro Primary Results
There were no major surprises in the Greensboro City Council primaries yesterday, although a few results might be predicting the general election results in one month. Marikay Abuzuaiter outpaced Robbie Perkins by a healthy margin– seven points– in the race for mayor. The other two candidates drop out of the […]
Adam Marshall’s N&R Ad
Recall that Adam Marshall is the machine’s candidate for Greensboro City Council in district 4. He had an ad in the News and Record this weekend.

Stein’s Signature And The Problem Of Crime

Charlotte Light Rail A Set-Up For Violent Crime
With the highly publicized murder that took place recently, our state Auditor produced an audit examining safety on Charlotte’s light rail. Certain issues were identified contributing to a lack of safety. I have some familiarity with Charlotte’s system. Riders access it at street level; and there is no controlled entry/exit […]
Former Governor Cooper Swimming With CCP Advocates
We learn from the Blue Ridge Times that Roy Cooper is tight with a crowd that furthers the interests of the Chinese Communist Party. Why am I not surprised? That is a known tendency of the democratic socialists in the United States.
