Cawthorn has been accused of sexually assaulting a minor... and apparently there is proof.



Ugh, someone in the Twitter comments is talking about the age of consent. People, it doesn't matter what the age of consent is if there was no consent to begin with.

Called it. Down the road = 4 days, yikes lol

This is a nothingburger (even though he apparently has a penchant for weird posts/captions?) but I wouldn’t be surprised if some more serious oppo research on Cawthorn comes out down the road for obvious reasons.

What do you mean by this?

People with the looks + reputation/social standing of Madison Cawthorn (not for no reason) think they can get away with almost anything and are much more likely to overplay their hand in their "adventures." When this kind of imprudence meets obvious political ambition and a background of having grown up in an age in which everything is being recorded/shared, it’s just not a promising combination. The fact that some stuff (and I’m not necessarily saying all of it is accurate) is already being revealed or at least brought up before he’s even made the decision to run statewide tells you a lot.

I'm skeptical of Davis' chances honestly, but he seems decent. NC Democrats should consider giving Heath Shuler a call though, he would have a very good shot at this race.

Heath Shuler is a lobbyist now.

Doesn't matter, Shuler can beat Cawthorn.

Shuler's appeal was hyperlocal--he was a well liked high school football star. It's the kind of appeal which is easily tainted if you're perceived to have 'cashed in.'

Jesus F**k, how does one look like a Nazi and then turn out to be a rapist within the span of days? Seriously, I can't even make a glib joke about conservatives out of this. Thank Christ we ran a serious candidate here.

Some of you guys need to seek therapy, take a break from politics, and get a life tbh

I see Cawthorn follows exactly 88 people on twitter. Interesting.

Cawthorn now faces three sexual assault allegations.

If it weren't for the fact that this is an R+14 district, I'd say this is now a Lean D race. As it is, given Morris Davis could turn out to be a potentially solid candidate, I'll move this one to a straight Tossup, pending further information.

That's truly fine talk coming from a modern day American conservative. All due apologies, but you need to try harder, because I work, I write, and I get out and exercise. You know, things to prove to me that the world does not, in fact, revolve around me, which is something you and your kind could desperately do with picking up.

Also, you did nothing to prove to me that Cawthorn is not, in fact, a Nazi.

But points for participation, buddy. Smiley

I'd wait and see about those allegations, but this district is not even R+14. The court-ordered redistricting means it's PVI is actually R+8 or so. Still pretty Republican for sure, but unlike most Appalachian districts, it's not impossible for the right Democratic candidate.

I was using Ballotpedia as my source and they still have it as R+14.

Yeah, they're still using the PVIs from the old district.

It's amazing how horrific of a person Cawthorn has turned out to be. I definitely am upset at the fact that I defended this man against an attack early on. We'll see if a miracle happens here, but I doubt it. If he wins, he'll be in Congress for decades.

Hardly, all it takes is the NC D court to require Wautauga county to be shoved into this district for a Trump +11, Mccrory +2 district.

You're right-I forgot that North Carolina is liable to redistricting at any point. It's been redistricted at least three times over the past decade. But I still fear that once he gets in, he'll be difficult to get rid of.

So this race seems to be making a good case for the most dysfunctional in the country.

This is truly giving me “The Campaign” vibes, except this isn’t a movie.
