On Tuesday, NC Senate Republicans also gave Boliek NEW powers to "audit" future elections and the county boards HE is in charge of staffing. How do ya think auditing himself will go? Republicans like Boliek looove transparency... unless they're the one's who have to be transparent. #ncpol

Beatrice Sexton@bsexton.bsky.social · 6d ago

There's absolutely no excuse for Boliek's office not to comply with the state's public records law. The legislature gave his office $2.5 million to hire staff. Boliek is hiding something. #ncpol

It's so fun to read that one of the richest elected officials in NC, a republican living in a $2.7 million home who spent 250k on a dinner with Bill Belichick, is the guy jacking up my health insurance premiums every single year since he was elected. #ncpol www.theassemblync.com/news/politic...

NC Auditor Dave Boliek was elected to protect taxpayer dollars. Instead he’s attacking our voting rights. Shifting voting sites, shortening voting hours, eliminating early voting days– Boliek needs to stop blocking the ballot box & start doing the job he was elected to do. #ncpol

My student loan payment was $92 a month under Biden’s SAVE plan. In August, it will go up to $283 a month under the republicans new plan. Thanks, Donald Trump. I’m truly so fucking sick of winning.

Republicans say government should run like a business. What business makes its employees wait 14 months because management couldn’t pass a budget? State employees kept showing up despite permanently losing a year of higher retirement earnings. Their reward? Bonuses delayed until September. #ncpol

State employees will wait another month for raises — and longer for bonuses

The newly enacted state budget includes bonuses for state employees, but the money won't appear in paychecks until late September.

🧵 North Carolina’s Republican State Auditor Dave Boliek has been in charge of our elections for a little over a year. He’s the ONLY state auditor in America with that power. And in just over a year, Dave Boliek has turned our election system into a partisan sewer. Let’s review. #ncpol

You mean… the corrupt Republican auditor, the only one in the country responsible for elections, who was given that power by a corrupt Republican legislative supermajority, wants to manipulate election polling places to favor republicans? I’m shocked. #ncpol ncnewsline.com/2026/07/14/n...
