So, Who get to say which communities in NC are more important for May 8th election.

Yes, which communities are better than others here in NC. I have often said that if you live east of 95, you simple don’t exist to many LGBT groups or org’s. Yes, Wilmington gets attention, and many consider it a part of Eastern NC, which it not. It’s more southern then eastern..

However, Eastern NC isn’t just left out by the groups or org’s, hell our very own NC LGBT Newspaper can’t be bothered, in the Editor eyes, and yes I’m paraphrasing, “Eastern NC is a waste of time and resources,” simple because we don’t have the numbers like Raleigh, Durham, Greensboro and Charlotte.

Now I found this little bit of info,

Equality North Carolina, Human Rights Campaign, and other major backers and fund-raisers have already determined which voters they need to contact. The business community is arguing that discrimination will drive away top talent. Progressive faith leaders are rallying to counteract the religious right. And organizers are fanning out to urban centers and the 16 state university campuses, where they know votes in their favor exist.

So I guess these are the Colleges that are focusing on,

1. Appalachian State University
2. East Carolina University
3. Elizabeth City State University
4. Fayetteville State University
5. North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University
6. North Carolina Central University
7. North Carolina State University
8. University of North Carolina at Asheville
9. University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
10. University of North Carolina at Charlotte
11. University of North Carolina at Greensboro
12. University of North Carolina at Pembroke
13. University of North Carolina at Wilmington (UNCW)
14. University of North Carolina School of the Arts
15. Western Carolina University
16. Winston-Salem State University

I wonder if they outreach to the 16 Private liberal arts Colleges. How about the 35 Private Colleges and Universities, or any of the many NC Community Colleges.. I’m sure they are reached out to Duke..

Now ENC is hoping that NC unmarried straights couples will join in to help protect limited rights.

Since both side don’t have a long time to fund raise, this is true on the money part. However, it mostly a white lie.. Each side for years held protests, letters campaigns and so on.

ENC last year (2011) held a post-card campaign, where they ask for NC citizens to fill out so they could delivery these cards to the Representatives and Senators of NCGA. This was a huge failure.. Why, they deliver these cards the Day of the first day of the session. Where the Senate voted and passed the amendment, the next day the House voted and passed the amendment. So in truth not one Rep or Sen., saw these cards fully till after the vote..

These Cards should have been delivered why before the first day of the Session. But those who thought they knew it all, Claim and Sworn that now votes on this amendment would happen that fast.. Guess what, they were wrong..

So after the votes and passage of the Bill many new groups have pop up over NC to raise cash to fight this amendment. Most in Raleigh area and western.. Which one group in the west, feels it important to have and hold their workshop in South Carolina, I have to wonder what they are hiding.

Now comes, this Race to the Ballot group.

Yes shocking they will be running through some of the East, through Rocky Mount to Greenville than they run south to Fayetteville, NC. So Greenville is the farthest they are willing to go. Which mean nearly over 16 counties will be left out..

That does these groups have against the East??
