Charlotte, NC's first Black female mayor, Vi Lyles, will step down from office Jun 30. The City Council will have to appoint another Democrat to finish her term through '27, and it doesn't have to be another council member. (I prefer to be governed by someone who has been elected by voters.) #NCpol
