Neither are major places in the state. Currituck is up in the isolated northeastern corner and Watauga is Boone in the northwestern corner surrounded by mountains. The three major areas are Charlotte, the Triad, and the Triangle.
**** that bitch. She can go rot in hell. For people that are upset McCrory got elected, it's entirely down to people like her and Mike Easley because "General Democrat" has always beaten "General Republican" in North Carolina since the end of Reconstruction.
Perdue is from my hometown of New Bern and it absolutely appalls me she got to governor. She ran on she was good for education when she intentionally killed educational opportunities for kids in her county that if they pursued it they were ensured a middle-class living without even leaving the area. We're not talking a handful of jobs, we're talking more than a thousand. Now there's a shortage of people to work at a major government employer in the area and none of the kids know how to do that work because Perdue actively sought to kill technical education programs. She actually went to my school I was attending when she was a state senator to push this.
