He's literally the worst thing that ever happened to the state of North Carolina. - Travis, Salemburg

he has been a terrible governor! Ann, Asheville

Cowing to the party line in the legislature has turned him into one of the least respectable politicians in our state. In not standing up to the legislature, he has led our state backwards many, many years in all facets. - Amy, Raleigh

A disgrace to the people of this wonderful state. But McCrory didn't fail the state alone, the Republican controlled legislature rubber stamped and/or colluded the whole time. Truly shameful performance. - David, New Bern

McCrory is a small-minded Luddite. He is the personification of the intellectual emptiness of the Tea Party, and his racist dog-whistling should not be tolerated. He never should have been elected, and its time for him to go. But if he is reelected, it tells me that this is a state that I don't want to live in, and I would discourage other professionals from moving here. - David, Huntersville

As a retired teacher, I would give him an F! - Claudia, Huntersville

F FOR FAILING. HE CAME IN WITH HIS OWN AGENDA AND LEFT THE PEOPLE'S NEEDS IN A BACK CORNER. - H. R., Fayetteville

I think he has been terrible for the state of NC a real embarrassment. I would give him an F- Michael, Charlotte

The HB2 episode is a tragic example of how government should NOT function and what governors should never condone! But he did. Some things he did well. This is a colossal failure to lead responsibly! - John, Edenton

McCrory has come close to RUINING NC. He has been on the side of big business at every turn. He cares nothing for his constituents. - Catherine, Greensboro

McCrory has been a BIG failure, especially in terms of leadership. The state has become less progressive. McCrory has been responsible for a negative economic impact because of his unyielding support of HB2. - Barry, Biltmore Lake

Corrupt, reactionary, in the pocket of Duke energy, tone deaf to the real needs of the state. Worst, most divisive governor in decades, if not ever. - John, Holly Springs

Governor McCrory deserves a solid "F" for his time as North Carolina's Governor! He should send the people of North Carolina a rebate for all the damage he has done to this state. I can't imagine what new jobs he brought to our state but I do know of quite of few big company employers who got out of Dodge. - Janice, Stoneville

Gives Higher Education a Bad Name! - Joseph, Charlotte

As a life-long North Carolinian, I have been dismayed by what has happened to my state under McCrory and his legislature. I never liked it when people would mix up North and South Carolina, but now it doesn't matter: we've lost our claim to a being a progressive Southern state. We have instead become a regressive state, and I am no longer a proud North Carolinian. - Linda, Winston-Salem

I think he's been a disaster for our state: for education, human rights, the stupid HB2 law - Nancy, Asheville

He is a major disappointment. He has sold ordinary North Carolinians down the river while increasing their tax burden, making it more difficult to cast a ballot, and restricting rights of certain citizens. - Joel, McLeansville
