Remember What Catherine Truitt Said About “Endorsing” Michele Morrow

From today’s online post on NCNewsline.com:

It’s always been a mystery to me why someone who has never trusted her own children with the public school systems, and someone who’s never worked in public schools in any capacity at all, would want to be the state’s leader of our public schools.”

That’s a heckuva statement.

Not too long ago there was this:

“I can tell you wholeheartedly… if [Morrow] were to ask me to endorse her, the answer would be no.”

“Wholeheartedly.”

Coming from the incumbent concerning the nominee from her own party, I respect that Catherine Truitt put people over party.

I wish this had come out earlier in 2024 – even before this article in the early summer. While she may not have wanted to openly go against her party’s nominee because of “politics” and partisan loyalty right after the primaries, Catherine Truitt is now telling people to vote for Mo Green as North Carolina’s State Superintendent instead of someone who has a “complete lack of understanding.”

“In the few opportunities that I was actually sharing space with her in a panel or debate, I was shocked by her complete lack of understanding of how public schools function and what the job of state superintendent is,” Truitt said.
