US Senate Candidates
Just when you thought the political season was over, the 2022 elections are already heating up. Several candidates are considering running for the US Senate, including a Mayor from a small Eastern town and a native North Carolinian member of the Trump family. 

Constitutional Convention
The legislature is considering joining 16 other states to call for a Constitutional Convention. The purpose would be to rewrite the US Constitution. View Article.
