If this holds up as a North Carolinian I'm embarrassed

would there have been this type of urgency in Georgia to GOTV.

Y'all did a lot of the heavy lifting in '08 and it was close this year in your state. Go get 'em in '22, '24, etc.

lost to the GOP presidential candidate by a measly 1-2 points. Losing the senate seat by a nail biter was also infuriating. Tired of losing these nailbiters to the republicans. Hopefully we can break through in the next cycle but credit to GA for making the breakthrough.

I lived through Colorado's turn to the idiocy and feel proud to have helped turn it blue.

Texas in getting where they are today.

North Carolina and Texas just needs more work . But we saw how close Beto came and I think North Carolina would have gone Democratic if not for the Sexting/Affair.

Remember that Democrats are held to a higher standard including by their own voters than Republicans.

NC was blue back in '08 when they elected Obama but like I said the last 3 cycles the GOP candidate has won by squeakers in the state. NC is on the verge of breaking through while Texas I feel is further away.

We are transplants from NJ and hope to help NC turn blue. Be patient.

and it has been nothing but tough loses since then with the republicans barely winning down here but you are right eventually we will turn the corner.

basically we lost most races here about 48 to 52 as a default. We had some strong incumbents win (Cooper, Stein, Marshall, and Wood) and others lose considerably more narrowly (Beasley, Biden, and Cunningham) and a few races were worse (Ag and Labor) but otherwise it was pretty much 52 to 48 in favor of the GOP. That is sad but I do think we are moving in the right direction and when Trump isn't on the ballot (like in 2018) we will win these races instead of losing them.
