to be a DINO who voted for Republican sponsored HB-2. In fact, Rep. Reives voted against HB-2. Some facts from Reive's political summary.
-- voted against HB-2
-- rated 7% by American Conservative Union (Lifetime Score (State Legislatures)) in 2015
-- rated 100% by ACLU of NC (Positions) in 2015

You can see why the Repugs want to create confusion about him. Just a few minutes ago, I verified that the Repug link mentioned in the OP still shows Rep. Reives photo as one of the DINOs who voted for HB-2. That's the way Repugs behave in NC.
