The North Carolina Association of Broadcasters excluded Libertarian candidate Barbara Howe from their first gubernatorial debate, broadcast from the taxpayer-funded UNC-TV studios in Durham. Howe was excluded despite the fact she’s ballot-qualified and polling as high as nine percent, quite an accomplishment for a third party candidate.
Howe said she believes North Carolina voters deserve to have the full picture when submitting their ballots this November and the NCAB did a great disservice to the public but not inviting her. So in response, she’s posted a video on YouTube answering some of the same questions posed to Democrat Walter Dalton and Republican Pat McCrory.
She has my vote here in NC.
A taxpayer funded TV station and they omit a strong alternative contender. If only the sheeple would awaken and get pissed off at this sort of unfairness.
