Thanks to the IIANC for hosting today’s Thinkers Lunch in Raleigh! About 50 people joined us to hear about Keep Our Republic nonpartisan work and the vital role our county elections directors play. I was glad to share the panel with fellow NC KOR Advisory Council members Kim Strach and Asher Hildebrand. 🗳️

Spent the weekend in Rocky Mount, NC at the Top Gun Sports Winter World Series cheering on my Virginia Beach little bro's crew. 8am games in 41 degrees will test your love… and we passed with flying colors (and lots of blankets) 🥶

Highlights:
⚾️ Mason bringing the heat on the mound.
🏆 An MVP in the family!
🍗 Smithfield's, because of course
🎂 Celebrating our October birthdays
📸 And Chase appointing himself our official roving photographer, so some of these are thanks to him.

Nothing beats a weekend of family, ball fields and nephews. My heart is full (my toes are still thawing) 💛

Thank you, Randolph County! 🇺🇸 Neighbors filled the Asheboro Public Library last night with Keep Our Republic asking great questions about where to find trusted election information, from photo ID to mail-in ballots. Your county board of elections and ncsbe.gov are the place to start.

Today I moderated Keep Our Republic Virtual Media Briefing on North Carolina’s elections. More than a dozen national outlets and several statewide reporters joined our nonpartisan conversation, and they asked thoughtful questions about election security, cybersecurity, and what voters can expect this fall.

Thank you to our panelists: Tim Tsujii, Forsyth County Elections Director; Kellie Hopkins, Beaufort County Elections Director; and Paul Cox, Keep Our Republic Advisory Council member. They gave clear answers from people who know how our elections work. 🇺🇸

Elections in North Carolina are run by our neighbors, and they’re ready. Trust is built by showing the public how the process works.
