Tillis is up for reelection in 2026. If former two term popular Democrat Governor Roy Cooper runs against him, as expected, he is toast. He isn’t liberal enough to attract urban Dem votes. His RINO votes (a McConnell man) and his behind the scenes sabotaging of Trump’s nominees is killing him with MAGA voters. He is also very soft on the border and was working with Dem Senators in the Biden years on “immigration reform”.
Meanwhile our newly elected conservative Republican Senator Ted Budd is voting solidly for the Trump agenda. Demonstrating a MAGA conservative can win in this moderate state.
Tillis needs to be primaries and replaced by someone who can win. Otherwise Roy Cooper will be representing NC in the Senate for six years beginning in January 2027.
