I’ve been told that I don’t “look” like a State Auditor. Well, this is how North Carolina’s State Auditor looks - a disruption to the status quo. Black women are changing the face of politics in NC and the White House. Birthday celebration and then sprint to Nov. 🗳️

Conceding hurt. I wanted to win not for myself but for all of the forgotten voices I would have uplifted. I’ve cried & then cried some more. For those who didn’t win elections, join me in a pledge of service - not a position. Service is not a title or office. There’s work to do.
