Discover what's at stake in NC's heated Republican runoff for Lieutenant Governor as we dissect the profiles of two major contenders: Jim O'Neill, with his prosecutor's eye for justice and economic savvy, and Hal Weatherman, the nonprofit founder with political savvy to match. I'm your host, Amanda Benbow Lunn, inviting you into the pulse of this critical election. We're not just talking policies and political rhetoric; we're decoding what each candidate's vision could mean for the future of NC. O'Neill's commitment to public safety and mental health, alongside his track record as Forsyth County District Attorney, reveals a narrative of hard-lined experience. Meanwhile, Weatherman, buoyed by the support of the current Lieutenant Governor, presents a blend of grassroots activism and legislative know-how that he's ready to bring to the table.

Gear up to cast an informed vote as we lay out the nitty-gritty details of the upcoming runoff. With vital voting information at your fingertips, including key dates for early voting and absentee ballot particulars, this episode is your definitive guide to making a pivotal choice for North Carolina's leadership on May 14th.
