Pat McCrory's most recent BS complaint was rejected, Roy Cooper's lead continues to grow, yet McCrory's campaign won't move on.He is making bogus complaints and leaning on the Board of Election's chair, ex-GOP chair from New Hanover County and Stampin' Up! sales rep Rhonda Amorosa, to swing the count for him. They are trying to muddy the water by claiming voter fraud that doesn't exist. Quelle surprise!
There is honest fear in our state that the NC GOP majority in the legislature is going to drag this out so they can either pack the supreme court with two additional justices to maintain their majority (they lost that race too) and/or attempt to appoint Pat to another term in an upcoming emergency hurricane relief session.
The GOP will neither confirm or deny this accusation. Since they were reckless enough to do the HB2 thing, I assume they are reckless enough to do this too. Fool me once.....
NC peeps can help by contacting their reps:

The rest of you can help by raising awareness. People are distracted by the national issues, so they are going to try to steal this one while we are looking elsewhere.

his lead somewhat. But surely the majority of those 60,000 provisional ballots would go to Cooper also?
LA Times:
Most of the questions raised by the McCrory campaign center around voters many of them African American who said they registered at the Division of Motor Vehicles and public assistance offices, but whose names did not appear on voter rolls on election day.
I'd be chewing my nails also over these attempts to steal the election, but I'd also refuse to read the lying trash published by scumbag sites like Townhall. After all, at this point if it's not admissible in court it doesn't matter.
