NC based, I try to get outside, I knit, I read a wide range of things, I like dogs, I would probably rather be sleeping

So Max Miller seems to be staying in his race maybe and apparently it's a only a Trump +11 district and I dunno that seems flippable to me when you have a real abusive psycho on the ballot

The thing you need to understand is that there are 2 (TWO) different method for amending the constitution 1) The process laid out in the constititon itself (conventions, or 2/3's of both houses followed by 3/4 of states ratifying) OR 2) find five votes on the Supreme Court.

Breaking News: President Trump is said to be in talks to send Afghans who helped the U.S. war effort to the Democratic Republic of Congo.

For those of you outside of NC, Phil Berger is the most powerful GOP pol in the state, the architect of a decade of Republican policy “successes” and their biggest channel of campaign $$$. If he loses, the NCGOP will have shot its golden goose in the face, point blank. And I’m here for it.

Wow, Rockingham County is really not happy with its #ncga representation. With all precincts reporting, Berger got 33% of his home county (but could still win with Guilford), and Rep. Reece Pyrtle appears to have lost to Seth Woodall. #ncpol
