Watching news conference with Elizabeth City, NC Mayor, City Manager, and Police Chief. This:

This event may make it more likely that NC goes blue within the next two election cycles. These city officials are very impressive concerning their community policing efforts and management of their protests. As long as they can keep out the trouble-makers who don't live in their city, they will have set an example for the rest of the country. Hats off to them.

1. NC is a purple state. Governor Cooper (D) is on his second term.

North Carolinians seem to like Republican Senators. Lara Trump may run for Senate in 2024 and we will need a Stacey Abrams-like effort to defeat her. We probably would have beaten Tillis (R) if Cunningham (D) had kept it in his pants, or at least not shagged the wife of a junior officer/wounded veteran. Unfortunately, good ol' boy Republicans have gerrymandered congressional districts with scalpel-like precision and these bastards are doing everything in their power to suppress the vote.

How does the shooting on the coast bring the "mountain folk" around? The ones who voted #RollerNazi Madison Cawthorn into office? You think suddenly that "back the blue" Republicans are going to vote Democratic? Or the ones who attribute a strong economy to Republicans, no matter what the Biden Admin accomplishes? Who are these voters you think will "turn NC blue" based on the events in Pasquotank County?
