2012 election

In 2010 Renee Ellmers attacked Bob Etheridge for supposedly voting to cut Medicare. Now in 2011, Ellmers is not only voting to cut Medicare, but end the program as we know it.

Great news! Charlotte has been name as one of the final four in contention for the Democratic National Convention for 2012. We could certainly use all the help we can get from the national party to stay blue in that next big election, and this would certainly bring the national party's eye here.

In addition to bragging rights, the economic impact could tremendous. Denver reported earning $266 million when it hosted the 2008 Democratic convention. That's a lot of money and a lot of jobs created at a time when we're working to get our economy back on track.

You can aid in our efforts to getting the convention to the Queen City by signing this petition or you can upload a video or personal story here stating why you think the Democratic National Convention should come to North Carolina.
