Wow: NC GOP has passed a *3rd* law to remove the Dem majority from the elections board so Dems can’t reverse past GOP voter suppression. Courts already blocked their first 2 attempts, so they cynically tied this 1 to an unrelated edu. bill Dems had favored https://t.co/1VaFQ6Z5h8

Cooper let this bill become law without his signature because the NC GOP holds veto-proof majorities due to unconstitutional gerrymanders. Vetoing it simply would have let GOP attack him over education in the next election. Stunning bad faith by GOP #NCpol https://t.co/Q2exE8jJt0

The North Carolina GOP has instituted possibly the most successful coup in modern American history. And there seems to be literally zero way to get it out of their hands because they control all the nominal levers of addressing this.
