CHARLOTTE, N.C. — North Carolina is a state on the verge. Of what? Well, that depends on whom you ask. Some residents are thrilled that the state seems to be politically falling in line with a bunch of its neighbors to the south, most recently with an abortion bill. Others, particularly those who felt protected in relatively progressive urban bubbles, aren’t happy with the shift and are vocalizing their displeasure.

To back up a bit, in the past few years, the state’s tint could reasonably have been described as a reddish shade of purple. You could see it in its Democratic governor, Roy Cooper, with Roy Cooper, with moderate policies and a calm demeanor that shielded his resolve, and a competing state legislature with a Republican majority big enough to flex its muscles but still subject to a veto when it pushed too far right.

One difference between NC and Virginia and Georgia - NC has almost no counties with Dominion Election systems.

They should move to California or Illinois where their preferred policies are in full bloom free of Republican interference.

Well, then, they can move to Maryland, OK?

“...most recently with an abortion bill”

There will always be PLENTY of states that will welcome women who feel a need to kill their babies.

Mark Robinson was given a chance by black voters. I think you’ll see they’ll come out for him again to be governor. Hell, he’d be a good president if he lost some weight.

Do you know if Durham county NC used Dominion? I remember them dropping 50k democrat votes out of thin air in 2020.

The county map in this doc says no Dominion Systems in NC.

There were suspicious vote dumps from other vendors, but the worst were Dominion systems, GA, AZ, Montgomery County PA etc.
