We wish that Trump will “dominate” in NC but neither party is going to do that. If people ignore outlier polls on the left they better ignore the same type on the right, otherwise they’re just deluding themselves.
The North Carolina gubernatorial election is shaping up to be somewhat like the one in Kentucky, where an empty-suit liberal Rat is being opposed by a black conservative (Mark Robinson in NC, Daniel Cameron in Kentucky).
As happened in Kentucky too, the liberal has a sizable advantage in fundraising, with Joshie Stein having all the money in the world and Robinson trailing by several million dollars. The liberal wing of the GOP (scumbag Thom Tillis, etc.) is making a point out of NOT supporting Robinson and not funding him either.
I’m not in NC but I’d wager that Stein’s media campaign of lies and hate is running 24/7 everywhere while Robinson’s media presence is far more low-profile by comparison, if it exists at all.
UNLIKE in Kentucky, Robinson is a fighter while Cameron turned out to be a lukewarm bowl of milk and went down meekly.
Good luck to Robinson. He’ll never be heavily favored in any reliable poll (or in November), but it damn sure ought to be close in the end and not any blowout in favor of the sleazy A.G.
Any reliable poll would show Robinson ahead.
The only way democrats win is:
1) do a fake poll favoring their candidate
2) use the same old tactics to steal the election
KY and NC are alike in that usually go Dem for governor no matter what.
