After the Battle of Alamance, governmental corruption continued

Throughout the conflict, the Regulators protested for years in an effort to change the corrupt local government that already existed. They made some progress when Herman Husband and John Pryor, two of their own men, were appointed to the general assembly. However, Herman Husband, one of the chosen Regulators, was ultimately ejected from the assembly after being charged with inciting rioting.

The Regulators' defeat at the Battle of Alamance, despite their best efforts, meant that the system remained tainted. After the Battle of Alamance, governmental corruption continued. According to some sources, Governor Tryon even increased taxes again to pay for the militia that fought at Alamance after the fight. However, the Regulator Movement had made a mark on the colony and had allowed like-minded colonists to fight for a cause that they believed in.
