Doesn’t North Carolina have a run-off to the general election if no candidate reaches 50%? Do I falsely remember certain key elections (1994?) waiting for weeks after the general election to find out how large the GOP gains were because NC had run-offs?
I don’t know if North Carlina had runoffs for the general election in 1994 (I don’t think so), but they don’t now, only Georgia does, as we saw in 2008 with the Senate race.
There were no runoffs in Georgia in 1994 and even in Louisiana, with it’s idiotic system of an all-party “jungle primary” in November and a runoff in December, no runoffs were needed in ‘94. So I don’t know what you are remembering.
Anyway, I don’t think this clown will get anywhere near where a few polls have him now. But any little bit COULD hurt.
Note to all the Harry Reid supporters on this thread, Thom Tillis is a fine conservative and this losertarian’s main issue is slashing military spending in the name of ending war, sounds great.
