Letting the party in power draw maps with political data is like letting one team set the rules before the game. Wrong under Democrats; wrong under Republicans. Our NC maps show another way. See the comparisons. What would you change? ECU discussion: Oct. 21.
Disagreement is not disloyalty.
We can challenge our government, question our leaders, and disagree with our neighbors without loving America any less.
Patriotism isn't about agreeing on everything.
It's about believing our country is worth making better.

We don't typically repost celebrity comments, because being a great actor or athlete in and of itself doesn't give you any expertise in other fields. However, this is an excellent take on independents. And worth a share.
North Carolina needs more voices at the table.
NC Forward Party Vice Chair Lennie Friedman joined PBS NC's State Lines to discuss elections, healthcare, inflation, and economic development with panelists from across the political spectrum.
Different views. Productive discussion.

If politicians believe in term limits, why not impose them on themselves?
No legislation required. Just a public commitment to voters.
Public service shouldn't become a lifelong entitlement.
Hear Emily Truman discuss self-imposed term limits on the NCFP podcast.

Great conversation on PBS State Lines. Thank you for having us on.
Early Voting trends are showing Democratic Party enthusiasm, but @NCGOP is fighting back across the ballot. Then there are all those "unaffiliated" voters that I ask @LFried76 of @ForwardPartyNC about...what's their "vibe?" From State Lines #ncpol @MyPBSNC

@SteveRaoForWake is a great guest for State Lines when topics like AI & data centers are on the show. We're using AI....a lot. But, that requires data centers, which "we" are increasingly opposing. Steve says the time to talk is now...especially over power. #ncpol
Your vote should be earned.
Not because someone wears the red jersey.
Not because someone wears the blue jersey.
Vote for the person who has earned your trust, your support and your vote.
Politicians should have to compete for us—not assume they own us.
Proud to Be American: A Home for the Politically Homeless
You shouldn’t have to agree with one party on everything to have a political home.
Complex views belong. Independent thinking belongs.
Forward’s answer: solutions over party loyalty.
Belonging without conformity.
