NC-9 Special Election Discussion
Bishop (R) vs McCready (D)
I know but that’s better for the R than Mecklenburg as a whole which has over 1,000,000 people and is more heavily D than this section.
Meck’s holding their votes to see the margin
Thanks for posting thread. Interested in a positive outcome for the GOP
candidate.
Bishop is gaining :)
Very, very close.
Of course..Dem districts always do that so they can stuff the ballot boxes
Thank you so much for your reporting.
Bishop now trailing by 200+ votes !!!!!
:)
bishop trails by 129 votes
0.11%
You know if he only wins by a little, they will manufacture more votes.
Yes, really. Trump’s supposedly better than normal approval ratings among blacks and Hispanics didn’t turn into votes in 2018 though we were assured by the “experts” that they would.
Rising employment levels have even a more miniscule chance of translating into Republican votes among groups who are historically reluctant to leave the Rat plantation.
We’ve been hearing for DECADES that when blacks move up the economic ladder they will begin to vote their self-interests and no longer need to show dependency on Democrats. This, in fact, has never happened and suburban blacks often vote even MORE racist/Democrat than ones still in the ghetto. Look at the Atlanta and Washington DC metro areas for unquestionable confirmation.
Bishop almost at 59.5% in Union
I live in Robeson County!!
There are a lot of Lumbee Indians here and they are very pro-Trump!
Bishop seems to be doing well in Richmond county as compared to Harris in 2018:
Dan McCready DEM 7,138 50.19%
Mark Harris REP 6,786 47.71%
Jeff Scott LIB 298 2.10%
Bishop has the lead there with 88% of precinct reporting. Will be interesting to see the final tally there.
You’re whistling past the graveyard. This isn’t a racial thing. It’s a transplanted New Yorker thing. They’ve inundated Mecklenburg and Union counties over the last decade...
...and brought their voting habits with them.
Yup... :(
I’m optimistic the margin will grow beyond the margin of cheat.
Robeson County ... I remember it well.
Back many years ago, I edited an agricultural newspaper in NC. One of my more memorable assignments was visiting some of the Lumbee nation on their farms and associated agribusinesses. Nice, hospitable folks ... and I’m glad to hear they’re on the Trump train.
It's a pathetically stupid idea. Except that most "experts" who promote it know they are lying.
Only whites vote on issues.
