RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) - A member of a North Carolina county elections board has resigned after posting on social media that Democrats plan to legalize pedophilia.
The State Board of Elections and Ethics Enforcement confirmed Wednesday that Haywood County Board of Elections member Cornelia Cree, a Republican appointee, resigned from her position.
The Sept. 19 post, which was still on Cree’s Facebook page Wednesday, said if Democrats could have blocked Brett Kavanaugh’s nomination to the U.S. Supreme Court, they would “make child abuse legal” so they could win Catholic votes by stopping lawsuits against priests regarding child sex abuse.
