The matricula consular is still accepted by the North Carolina DMV as proof of residency. Yet, the FBI warns that matricula consulars are "vulnerable to fraud and forgery."

In what may become a campaign issue for some candidates in the mountains, Republican nominee for the U.S. House Dr. Carl Mumpower has issued a press release on this issue and is organizing a protest.
One can only hope Henderson County Sheriff Rick Davis — who as an elected official has taken an oath to uphold the U.S. Constitution — will be there too.
