Mike Barber; “Some of the very people who will now likely run for some of these districts sat around a conference room table in downtown Greensboro and helped draw the districts."

"At least one sitting council member said he believes that Wade drew the map in consultation with candidates she would like to see run.

“The most disgusting part of this proposal is the districts were created to benefit political supporters,” Councilman Mike Barber said last week. “Some of the very people who will now likely run for some of these districts sat around a conference room table in downtown Greensboro and helped draw the districts. This is political cronyism.”

Wade strongly denies that charge.

“That is emphatically untrue,” she said. “I’ve not gotten together with anybody from Greensboro. The only people who have drawn any lines are the staff from Raleigh. No one in Greensboro has drawn any lines or discussed any lines.”

Mike Barber

Mike Barber stated that some who could run
"helped draw the districts".

On what basis did Mr. Barber allege the story as fact?

Mike Barber has a history of lying.

Mike's statement appears to be an addition to the list.
