Summary

Though lawmakers often find themselves on far different sides of the aisle, many of them are putting differences aside to send an important message to Americans: the electoral process can be trusted. Former Governor James Martin (R-NC) and former Governor Mike Easley (D-NC) join Bret to share why they feel it's crucial to remind the American people of the work election officials do to ensure elections are fair and honest, especially with an incredibly close presidential race.  Later, they discuss the vital role North Carolina will play in this election as a key battleground state.
