How disgusting that North Carolina is even close. What happened to conservatism there?
Its not.. You seriously believe a state MITT ROMNEY won is going to go to Hillary? Come on folks, stop falling for this push polling, gas lighting, propaganda.
Immigration and minority birthrates. In 1990 whites were 75% of the population compared to 68.5% in 2010. Georgia is headed in the same direction.
The state's racial composition in the 2010 Census:
White: 68.5% (65.3% non-Hispanic white, 3.2% White Hispanic)
Black or African American: 21.5%
Asian American: 2.2%
Native Hawaiian and other Pacific Islander: 0.1%
Some other race: 4.3%
Multiracial American: 2.2%
Latino and Hispanic American of any race: 8.4%
They have been infested with thousands of former New Yorkers and other Northeasterners who brought their Leftist ways with them when they went to work in Charlotte. Add the large Black population that votes in monolithic lock step against their own interests and it makes for a close state.
Clinton has no one interested in voting FOR her. What we are seeing is a massive move of previously unmotivated voters coming forward to vote for Trump. This is like what would have happened to Bill Clinton had Ross Perot decided to run as a Republican.
That 18% of the Perot vote would have been a 14% increase Republican votes for Bush. Bill Clinton Cruised to the White House with a plurality of the vote, twice. He never had a majority of popular votes for President. He received 43% of the vote in 1992. Strangely enough, that is precisely the average vote percentage Hillary seems to have gotten.
