Being a former Charlotte mayor himself, McCrory isn’t exactly a fire-breathing social issues conservative. He’s pro-business. That’s why sticking to his guns over HB2 has been so surprising. Democrat activists in this state wanted to take out McCrory more than they wanted to prevent a Trump win, several have stated so publicly.
I’ve been lukewarm toward McCrory, myself. He strikes me as a bit of a squish, but far better than the alternative. I did vote for him. It’s evident to me that vote fraud provided the margin of victory, it all emerged from those late 90,000 votes in Durham County.
Whether that can ever be proved or not, I can’t say. But, I applaud the Republicans finally getting serious about pursuing voter fraud. It’s there, we all know it. Trouble is, the county and precinct levels in questionable areas are Democrat. It won’t be easy, and it won’t be quick.
Right. It was a LBGTQ issue that did him in.
