Local city and county leaders love flying around the country for their annual Inter-City Visits and touting all the wonderful ideas they reap during their adventures, which in turn can be emulated and implemented in Charlotte-Mecklenburg. We are doomed if they ever Inter-City visit Bell, California, a small town in Los Angeles County with some […]

Promises Made To Be Broken

Move Along, Nothing To See Here

Certainly not any evidence of willful misconduct by Gov. Beverly Perdue’s campaign, or at least none that the lead investigator for the State Board of Elections could find. The reason?
