This can be misleading. Years ago I asked someone why so many people were registered as dimocrats in the NC county where I lived that looked like they would have better sense. I was told it was because of the local elections for sheriff in counties with large black populations. Why a sheriff position should be affiliated with a political party doesn’t seem right to me but that’s just the way it is. Before the ‘unaffiliated’ voter group, that can vote in either primary, was created people registered as dimocrats because the sheriff’s were always chosen in the primary. The sheriffs running had to run as dimocrats to get the black vote. I was told lots of these registered dimocrats voted republican in the general elections. There are still a lot of people, especially older voters, that don’t realize they don’t have to be dimocrats any longer in order to have a chance to vote for sheriffs. They simply don’t understand the ‘unaffiliated’ voter benefits.

Unenthusiastic votes count just as much as enthusiastic votes...enthusiasm definitely helps, but it doesn’t close the deal in of itself.

Biden has been a constant presence in people’s living rooms for many months now.

I have always been unaffiliated in NC and occasionally I have had to explain to poll workers that I can vote in any primary. They do record on the public record which primary you voted in.

This race is a contest of ho-hum likely voters and enthusiastic likely voters.

Many registered Republicans in NC, switched to “non affiliated” in the decade prior to Trump

Interesting - do you have links to this data?

Amen! Me neither. The man who is supposedly double digits behind is drawing tens of thousands of people at every one of his rallies. The so called front runner can’t even draw twenty people to his events where there are more white circles than people. C’mon now. The MSM is trying to steal this election themselves with their propaganda. Not gonna happen!

Early voting is part of the Rat Party's "Grand Plan".They know that the Rat candidate always starts with a lead and that the Republican closes the gap as Election Day draws near.

The only way Rats can win is if they move the goalposts or if they're the ones counting the votes (as Stalin once mentioned).

hmmm...I don’t see that happening - not that PDJT hasn’t won but due to allowing ‘late ballots’, the contesting of counts, and all the general chaos that the D’s plan on implementing, they’re going to claim that PDJT can’t declare himself the winner.

Lots and lots of those Dem voters, voted for Trump. Tyrrell said some Southern state may have 45% of black voters going for Trump.

I know what you mean. I had a poll worker tell me one time that whatever party I voted for in the primary, I had to vote the same in the general election. I knew better but another poll worker piped up to correct it.

Here is an NC state analysis from Oct 21 by an odd twitter account that also publishes Japanese anime photos. They don’t attribute their analysis or reports to any organization. Maybe those with NC political knowledge can check out their conclusions and see if they make sense.

One shocking fact I didn’t know: In 2016, in a Dem+9.3 NC election environment, Trump won by 3.66%

See post 27 above for the current registration stats.
The Unafilliated are about a 3rd of the total registrants.........

I didn't search for the 2016 data but it should be similar.
