For reference, the voter registration levels have shifted to Unaffiliated since 2020, as well (whatever that means), so would expect a similar shift in turnout.
I suspect may of those former Ds are now UA for primary voting purposesHow in the hell have pubs added registered voters to the party while dems have lost registered voters?
Chin up, Queen!At this point people are voting who they are going to vote for. I am done worrying. Either Kamala wins or I am done caring for the next 4 years. You either vote for democracy at this point or fuck you. We will see. I will either see you next Wednesday or you will never see me here again. Bye
I know a lot of Dems that did this. Especially ones in red counties that sometimes don't even have anyone to vote for in primaries.I suspect may of those former Ds are now UA for primary voting purposes
Willful ignorance is exactly what it is. But the brainwashed can be deprogrammed under the right circumstances. Like the KKK kid Derek Black who had been groomed to be the next Grand Wizard leader who went to New College in Fla. Outside of the propaganda machine, and making new friends he came to understand and see the truth, the lies and hypocrisy. That is why the Right and DeSantis has been hell bent on destroying New College in particular. It’s retribution.HeelYeah reminds me somewhat of an older friend that used to post on the IC ZZL board. I never read the ZZL back then, but it seems that he must have had some verbal sparring with left leaning posters.
Like HeelYeah he had that strategy of voting D for NC governor but R for all federal offices. Before the days of Tea Party and MAGA he included me on a long right wing email list that always contained horseshit that would have not been received well on the ZZL. I would bite my tongue (not reply) email after email, because I suspected him of being a Pope operative and just wanted to monitor the disinformation. It was not unusual for there to be a Christian Nationalist slant to these emails.
One day I received one when in the right mood and replied to all with attached refuting articles (including one from Snopes). I received blistering replies from a few on the list with one saying he “did not give a god damn about Snopes.” So much for the Christian cloak.
I was immediately removed from the email list. I told this story to the head of the Democratic Party in Johnson City, and she replied that the same thing had happened to her previously.
So yes, willful ignorance appears to be a feature and not a bug.
Makes sense. I am a former R who is UA now but I did that before 2020. My oldest daughter turned 18 and is a registered D. My youngest is a D but registered UA.I suspect may of those former Ds are now UA for primary voting purposes
I changed from R to UA a few years ago, and I voted blue in every race on the ballot except one. I honestly don't see the reason to be registered R or D in NC.I know a lot of Dems that did this. Especially ones in red counties that sometimes don't even have anyone to vote for in primaries.
Agreed. I live in NC and have always been unaffiliated.I changed from R to UA a few years ago, and I voted blue in every race on the ballot except one. I honestly don't see the reason to be registered R or D in NC.
I am thinking of switching to UA after this year. R vs D gives zero benefitI changed from R to UA a few years ago, and I voted blue in every race on the ballot except one. I honestly don't see the reason to be registered R or D in NC.
I don’t see Robinson getting only 31% of the vote even in the current state of affairs, but if it ever could happen to a major party candidate, I guess this is the one.
Yeah, that's a problem in states like IL. But in states like NC, which at least for now allow UAs to vote in either primary, I just don't see the benefit.Interestingly was talking to a friend from Illinois who was fedup with the GOP and changed to unafilliated on primary day. She was then told she couldn't vote in the primary because she was unaffiliated. OOPS.
My last registration in Ga was R so I could vote against every Trump backed candidate. In the general I vote straight D (for now).Yeah, that's problem in states like IL. But in states like NC, which at least for now allow UAs to vote in either primary, I just don't see the benefit.
He doesnt want roses. an OnlyFans gift card, however....If Harris wins North Carolina, and I will believe it when it happens, then she should send two dozen red roses to Mark Robinson for his successful infiltation and subsequent destruction of the NC-GOP for at least one election cycle. But in all honesty, I think the average Republican in North Carolina will just look at Robinson's antics, think that's what happens when you nominate a . . ., and then pull the lever for every other Republican candidate in the ballot.
I'm moderately surprised that Mecklenburg County Republicans are not howling about how Republican candidates for all the District 27 District Judge races were left off the ballot.
