If you were in charge of NC Democrats, what would your goals be?

[Bush did 311]

NC has silently continued its shift since 2008. Demographically it's where Virginia was in 2008 but performs like a +5 R state because the gerrymandering broke the spirit of young voters. They're sitting around watching other southern states leapfrog them and watching places like CO and MN get cool things--knowing they cannot vote to get any of those things.

The state dems need to provide their voters with a clear roadmap to fighting back and ending the gerrymandering, and offer a series of enticing policies that would improve their material conditions.

NC has a large libertarian presence. These people are willing to vote for dem governors and other statewide offices to counter the general assembly for the state's business image. They will never vote to give dems power in the federal government though through the Senate or Presidency. For state level races these voters are in play and I think doubling down on electoral reform is something that would universally appeal to them.

Take back the supreme court
Strike down the maps and draw new ones
Have a good year statewide and then submit constitutional amendments that affect elections - proportional voting for the legislature (making gerrymandering moot), IRV for gov, senate, and a return to nonpartisan courts. The strengthened 3rd parties would be enticing for NC's largely anti-establishment electorate.
