Help track candidate promises throughout the gubernatorial campaign
As candidates for governor head out on the stump this year, they will make plenty of promises. Help us track the pledges made by those who want to hold the state's highest office.
Posted — UpdatedBut do they keep them?
McCrory, a Republican, is now running for re-election against Democrat Roy Cooper, the state's current attorney general, which means it's time to build a new Promise Tracker.
That's where you come in.
If you hear or see a promise by one of the candidates that you think they should be held to, let us know.
A "promise" should be a discrete pledge by a candidate for office to carry out a specific action. For example, a pledge to be "be accessible to the people" would be difficult to quantify. However, a pledge to "visit every county in the state" would be a promise we could score.
After the election, we'll use your suggestions to help create a list of pledges made by the winning candidate in order to build our new tracker. We'll then keep track of whether the winner lives up the standards he set for himself.
