In reply to the discussion: It's over, Madison POS Cawthorn lost [View all]Wonder Why

I live in his district and in NC, independents can vote in either primary but if there is a runoff primary, they must vote that same party if they want to vote. They cannot vote in one party's primary and the other party's runoff. A lot of my friends who register as independents and who voted, did so in the Republican primary specifically to vote against Cawthorn. Some went so far as to look at every candidate for every position they could vote on to see if they favored Trump and if so, voted for someone else.
