For the AG race, Stein is running circles around Newton. This is closer to Lean D than Tossup, IMO.

If Clinton carries NC, which is more likely than not, is it possible a dem sweep in NC?

Labor Commissioner Berry is essentially safe. Troxler would be very tough to beat, too.

Ah I see. Thanks! On a side note, it's quite amazing how split the NC electorate is. Almost all the statewide partisan races were decided by tiny margins, save for the Lt Gov race, which was still nothing substantial either.

Cherie Berry and Steve Troxler won by just over 10%.

How do we have a functioning democracy when one of the two main political parties disdains democracy, and doesn't even try to hide it anymore?

But there are, nationally, Democratic protesters refusing to accept the results, chanting: "Not my President!"

Instead, it's the Republicans here chanting: "Not my Governor!"

Those Democratic protesters aren't f**king public office holders. Stop this false equivalency BS.

Listen, McCrory is worse than these protesters.

However, Democrats should stop pretending like these protests are okay, though. Refusing to accept the results of an election is unacceptable, undemocratic, and deplorable.
