It’s time for a fact-check of North Carolina politics. This week we’re looking at a claim by Governor Josh Stein about mail-in ballots.

This week, our Fact Check looks at the state Senate leader’s apparent flip on a suspension of the state’s gas tax, which Gov. Josh Stein signed into law Friday. Earlier this year, Republican Phil Berger indicated he was against a suspension as a way to offset high fuel prices. Last week, though, he led the charge to do just that. -
