Good! It's high time NC Democrats did a little suffering!
Martin County elections board to discuss alleged vote buying
"The affidavit contains signed statements from voters and poll workers claiming Democratic Party organizer Kennis Wilkins, his wife, Brenda, and County Commissioner-elect Ronnie Smith offered to pay them in exchange for votes.
Two women wrote that they were offered $225 to vote a straight Democratic ticket and an extra $5 to solicit Democratic votes at the polls on Nov. 5."
What we are seeing is that the 80's and 90's produced a big infux of northern Democrats into North Carolina. They came to North Carolina from northern Democratic families and took North Carolina to the left.
Perhaps exposure to southern culture or perhaps it was leftist government, has turned them for at least this election into Republicans.
If the national Democrats turn hard left as expected, they will turn a lot of middle class white democrats into permanent Repubilcans.
The democrats are going Ha Ha you didn't cut into our black or latino voters. What the democrats need to worry about is they may become teh black latino teachers union party.
They need to consider that a party made up of small minorities is a minority party And a party made up of the white majority is the majority party.
Now, every NC FReeper should follow the NC GOP's advice and contact their Representative in the NC State House of Representatives and strongly support their victory but also STRONGLY URGE THEM TO FOLLOW THE WISHES OF THEIR CONSTITUENTS IN THE REPUBLICAN PARTY WHO WORKED AND VOTED FOR THEM - TO BE SURE TO ELECT AND REPUBLICAN SPEAKER OF THE NC HOUSE!!! There is some talk of that not happening.
I went to the first day of the NC Legislature in 1994 when the Historic majority - part of the Republican Revolution which came as a result of 2 years of Clinton insanity in this nation and leadership by Newt Gingrich in the US House of Representatives. It was an amazing day! It would be a fantastic thing if as many FR Republicans in NC as possible could attend the first day of the convening of the NC Legislature!!!!! in 2003. If there is any way for me to be there, I will be!
