FUBAR Meter moves to 9. Ninth month of the year, budget held up by casinos in a supermajority.
All bets are off.
Freedom Caucus rolls the dice.

The Press Corps temporarily suspended the Rules (can't go below 3 during session) to move the FUBAR down to 2 because of the House/Senate Medicaid expansion deal. Josie Zimmer does the honors.

This week has everything...
Early voting for two special elections
A hurricane coming toward the coast
A unanimous state court ruling calling for legislative districts to be redrawn within two weeks
And it’s only Wednesday.

It’s January in an even year. Can you remind us why we’re here? Official FUBAR reading: 5, because anything higher requires actual legislation to be passed.

FUBAR meter moved to 4.5, and frankly that might be pushing it this session, according to press corps consensus. Laura Leslie shows Kyle Ingram what to do for his inaugural FUBAR.

It’s July 9. There is no state budget and everyone is arguing on Twitter.
I think this means we need a mediation session where the
#NCGA
and Gov. Cooper can only use “I feel...” statements.
Any volunteers?

There ought to be a law against being in session after the sergeants-at-arms run out of popcorn for the year.
@RepDavidRLewis
, can you help us all out here?

As long as there are laws to be made and budgets to be written behind closed doors I’ll be alive and well. There is no rest for the wicked.

And we enjoyed learning from Capitol press corps members
@dawnbvaughan
and
@garydrobertson
about how they cover state government. Thanks to them both for great advice and insight. (Special appearance from the
@ncga_fubar
meter.)
Y’all took the words right out of our mouth — 6.0 for the hours of debate we just had to endure and the amount of politics not happening in Rep. Speciale’s office.

FUBAR reading is 3.9 (but after practicing our moonwalking it’s closer to a 4).
