On October 9, Governor Roy Cooper of North Carolina vetoed SB 656, the bill that greatly improves ballot access. However, his veto message says he vetoed it because of an unrelated provision affecting judicial primaries. There is some possibility that the legislature’s conference committee could meet again, delete the judicial part of the bill, and send it through the legislature again.
Do you think they will muster a straight-up veto override?
NO vetoes — a DARK AGE carryover from divine right of kings / monarchy.
That’s possible also.
I bet he didn’t even read the letter I sent his office online. Well, I hope the legislature overrides his veto.
Our best info is that the Republicans will override Gov. Cooper’s veto (they have overriden all his 13 them so far) but won’t do so until January.
