Building democracy isn't just protests and phone banks. It's potlucks and story circles. It's celebrating when someone registers for the first time. It's laughter at organizing meetings. Joy is resistance. Community is power. And we're building both across North Carolina. #HappyFriday

#SCOTUS will hear a case that could ban counting ballots that arrive after Election Day - even if postmarked on time. 104K ballots were already rejected in 2024 for arriving late. This could disenfranchise millions who vote by mail. 📰 : @democracydocket.com

Crucial watch-out for 2026: Brian @democracync.bsky.social urges us to keep an eye on how state money will influence these larger races.

We often hear the narrative that "apathy" reigns, but Brian @democracync.bsky.social felt the opposite in his university conversations. He saw young people eager to engage more.

We have reason to feel hopeful about the future of civic participation.

Voting on Election Day? Don't forget to bring ID 🪪

Voters will be asked to show photo ID when voting in NC. Most voters will simply show their driver’s license, but there are many other acceptable photo IDs. All voters will be allowed to vote with or without a photo ID. #ncpol
