As a native North Carolinian I guess I'll just testify to how mad the Left is down here. A lot of liberals (myself included) like to proudly claim that NC is the most progressive state in the South. The Art Pope/Tea Party hijacking of our state has made that argument a very difficult one. Add Trump into the mix and you have a Democratic base (don't forget that Democrats are a plurality of the electorate in NC) that is ready for a revolution this November.
I don't see Pittenger holding on. I also wouldn't rule out some flat-out surprises in the overall NC results on election night. It's a special year.
I want to wish you and your fellow Tar Heel Democrats an astounding night.
Taking the NC GOP down a peg is something we can all unite behind!
