Wake County, NC commissioners had to clear the room of protestors before passing, 5-2, the intention to merge @WakeMed into @AtriumHealth. Wake leaders say they need this. @NC_Governor got concessions on healthcare services. @knreynolds04 outlines this complex issue. #ncpol

New lawsuits are filed targeting "guidance" memos on NC's absentee ballots where both envelopes MUST be sealed upon delivery (or get disqualified) and signatures must meet standards. @knreynolds04 explains why there would be opposition to new elections rules now. #ncpol #StateLines

Are you buying that @RoyCooperNC has near double-digit polling lead over @WhatleyNC? Well...lots of consultants & experience political leaders like former @NCGOP Sen. Jim Perry, aren't. Here's why from State Lines.

Polling suggests NC voters will support a NC constitutional amendment to cap future NC income tax rates at no higher than 3.5%. The ballot language is simple and clear to understand in text, but @BTpolitics explains why simplicity hides big policy implications. From State Lines #ncpol

Will President Trump's campaign stop, in Gastonia, NC, this week build enthusiasm for the US Senate Race & US House races were the races are tight? I asked @HenryHinton1...and he's watching the polls. #ncpol From State Lines on @MyPBSNC

Should the 15 @UNC_System campus athletic departments see caps placed on public subsidies (Student fees) of athletics? There is wide variation in athletic budgets across NC. Here's @dawnbvaughan of @newsobserver on State Lines #ncpol

NC voters will choose if a NC Constitutional Amendment is necessary to mandate NC lawmakers to craft local property tax cap legisation in the future - not cap rates within the amendment itself. @RaleighReporter suggests the tax vote also gives @GOP voters some "push" to the polls. #ncpol From State Lines.

Former UNC Board of Governors' member @HenryHinton1 says @UNC_System leaders are been watching student fees, for athletics, for over a decade & now the rising fees on UNC campuses that aren't @UNC or @NCState require a policy review. From State Lines. #ncpol

It appears the NC Supreme Court will determine if @NCGOP legislative leaders can move appointment powers from @NC_Governor and to @NCAuditorBoliek. Reporter @dawnbvaughan says shifting Board of Elections appointments away from the Governor may've been highest profile shift. #ncpol From State Lines

Should @UNC_System Board of Governors limit the public money (Student fees, etc.) that does to the 15 athletic departments in NC? @UNC & @NCState don't rely heavily on public funds - like sports betting revenue - but other schools. Here's @RaleighReporter on State Lines. #ncpol

If @NCAuditorBoliek retains appointment powers over the NC Board of Elections, removing @NC_Governor Stein from appointments, does it really add "politics" to the board appointment process? @HenryHinton1 says this is legislative/governor battle that's over a decade old. #ncpol

NC voters will vote on a "property tax cap" amendment on the '26 ballot. It actually offers a state constitutional amendment requiring state lawmakers to pass a future law...& craft the details of a tax cap later. @HenryHinton1 looks past the ballot & wants tax cap details. From State Lines. #ncpol @MyPBSNC

If property taxation is inherently a "local" issue because city & county elected leaders craft local budget, why should state legislators get a potential state constitutional amendment directing them to enter property tax cap debate? @dawnbvaughan explains on State Lines. #ncpol
