Who Carries Pasquotank County, NC?

[ClassicElectionEnthusiast]

Thought of this since this is the county next to where I live. Pasquotank County (near the NC/VA border and primarily centered around Elizabeth City) has often been viewed as a relatively safe Democratic county (George H.W. Bush was the last Republican to carry it in 1988); but in 2016 and 2020 the county barely stayed in the Democratic column (by just 62 votes in 2020 with 295 votes going to third-party candidates).

Given that consideration, do you think Pasquotank County could flip to the Republicans in 2024?

Lean Trump. Dems have been bleeding in this region of NC for a while and imo that probably continues in 2024, especially given the midterm results. The County's black population has also generally been on a decline - that alone may be enough to flip the County to Trump in 2024 all else being equal (turnout, persuasion, ect).

You could make a case for Biden holding Nash, Wilson, and Anson, but Trump is clearly favored in Pasquotank.

Flips to Trump in everything but a blowout. Even if Trump doesn't persuade many Black voters, turnout looks likely to once again fall compared to the surrounding Whites and that will be enough to flip it.

Yep. Was originally considering basing the poll on that county before looking at the county results next door.
