Out this p.m. Apparently done to avoid lengthy litigation. G'luck with that!

ADDENDUM
Some numbers relevant to the above:
Party registration numbers in the newly proposed 5th District:
35.3% Dems
41.5% Reps

42% Rep
23% Una

Compared further to the CURRENT 5th Dist. map:

Thank God!!! The Democrats may lose power in the House, Senate and the Governor's office. After 140 years, the Republicans have a chance to run the government without corruption and back door deals. The Democrat Party in NC has grown out of touch and is ruled by a few crooks.

Had their chance, you should say.

Both corrupt parties have had their many chances to look after the American people's best interests but have failed miserably, you should say.

Looking at these figures it would appear there will be fewer GOPers and more Dems and Unaffiliated in The Madam's new district. Perhaps there's some hope that we can boot out that insensitive broad next time out?! I'll be working for that.
