We need more of this sort brass knuckles response to people who call themselves Democrats, but repeatedly defect to advance destructive Republican bills, or who stand in the way of legislation that improves the lives of their constituents.
Anderson Clayton is amazing. And she's only 28. One of the next gen Democrats who are reshaping the party for the better!

North Carolina's Democratic Party is punishing some state legislative candidates by blocking access to a key election resource. The reason: The candidates sided with Republicans in voting to override vetoes from Democratic governors. Reporter Bryan Anderson wrote about it for The Assembly. He joined WFAE's Marshall Terry.
Marshall Terry: There are four candidates being singled out here. We�ll get to them in a moment. First this resource they�re being denied access to is software called VoteBuilder. What does it do?
Bryan Anderson: It's a voter contact software that Democrats use typically for tracking volunteers, identifying possible donors, developing lists of possible supporters, and helping mobilize and turn those people out. So it's a critical grassroots organizing resource for the party.
Terry: Which Democratic lawmakers is the party denying access to VoteBuilder and why specifically?
Anderson: In Mecklenburg County, Reps. Carla Cunningham and Nasif Majeed. There's also Shelly Willingham, who's a current state lawmaker over in the eastern part of the state, as well as former state Rep. Michael Wray from Northampton County. The reason that all four are sort of being targeted here is because they have voted to override vetoes from Gov. Stein or then-Gov. Roy Cooper.
