    There was no way NC was going to vote for her. They’ll reject the batshit crazy governor, but they won’t vote for a Democratic President.

    Look at the history:

    2020 - Trump
    2016 - Trump
    2012 - Romney
    2008 - Obama
    2004 - Bush
    2000 - Bush
    1996 - Dole
    1992 - Bush
    1988 - Bush
    1984 - Reagan
    1980 - Reagan
    1976 - Carter
    1972 - Nixon
    1968 - Nixon

        Anecdotal, I live in NC and know 3 registered Republicans so far who have cast their votes for Harris, I am “Unaffiliated” and voted for Harris. All of us ended up voting straight Dem on the whole ballot because there is so much crazy on our ballots this year.

        The Republicans I know are never Trumpers and just don’t want to give up on the fantasy of what they think the party is supposed to be.

        I’m Unaffiliated because in NC you can choose which primary you want to vote when you show up. And sometimes I feel like I can do more good voting in the Republican primary, but other years have voted in the Dem primary.

        My point, I’m hoping so hard there are a lot of Rino’s and Unaffiliated early voting Harris, Stein, Jackson.
