Maybe you could just mark it blue instead of red - the color scheme makes sense for the current political climate and it would work better for people with red-green colorblindness.

What say the rest of the board? I can do pretty much what the consensus wants. Was using stop light protocol on the map, but if different scheme is wanted, say what you want.
 
Macon County did not vote on 2A status last night.
Said they would put on agenda in February.

Some people should email them a pic of this map and also send it to as many citizens as possible in that county. Perhaps some members on here that live in Bertie County can make that happen.

Just got a hold of the article in the paper. It says it died because there was no second to the motion because some of the commissioners didn't like the wording.

It sounds just like what Martin county just did to me. County attny said they couldn't do what the working says. They are still working on it.

Need to change from red to white for now. They didn't defeat it they just took no action. They are supposed to address it again once the wording is changed.

I'll change back to yellow since still under consideration.
 
Any one know what Surry, Bladen and Lincoln counties said in their resolutions? Article said the Bertie county resolution was a combination of those three.
