We'll be on WUNC's The State of Things today at noon
In the run-up to the May 6th primary, some North Carolina voters have been getting automated voice messages that are misleading and illegal. Chris Kromm, director of the Institute for Southern Studies, joins host Frank Stasio to explain the controversy behind a robo-call and mailing campaign by the non-profit group Women’s Voices, Women Vote, and the serious issues it raises about voter deception.For those out of the listening area, you can listen via live feed at WUNC's site.
NPR's Peter Overby gave the story national coverage on All Things Considered yesterday; you can find their story here.

Nice job on All Things Considered, Chris!
And thank you for pointing out several times that this group failed to modify their behavior even after 11 states complained -- let's hope Roy Cooper takes that into consideration and prosecutes. It may be the only way to get them to stop.
