Facing South investigation making waves

Our investigation posted earlier today about deceptive and likely illegal "robo-calls" made to North Carolina voters is making quite a splash. Here's some coverage you can find of the story:

Robo calls to register too late (Politico)

Women's Voices apologizes (Politico)

Nonprofit Women's Voices Women Vote stops suspicious robo calls (TPM Muckraker)

By hook or by crook (Talking Points Memo)

D.C. group behind robo calls (Under the Dome/Raleigh News & Observer)

Our report is also a top-recommended item at Daily Kos.

We'll keep you posted on story developments ...
