I want to believe we can get rid of him, but this is a red district and cawthorn is a local yokel.

I was raised in Brooklyn, but have lived in the 11th district of NC for almost 20 years, and my family moved here in the 1980's. Dad was a rethug and felt this was the place for him! I've seen Dems try and try again. Heath shuler, a sports hero, was the last Dem congressman here.

If Moe Davis (an air force veteran) couldn't beat cawthorn, I doubt Josh will be able to.
Moe was from Shelby, which is in western NC but part of district 10. He attended a local college. Cawthorn is from this area. Josh was raised in Wilmington, a long way from these mountains.

Locals will support a local boy. It's not what you know, it's where you're family is from.
