As we await the results of the Warnock - Walker runoff in Georgia, I still wonder why the DNC did so little to help North Carolina’s Cheri Beasley for US Senate. She faced an uphill battle against Ted Budd who had access to ***$42 million*** more in funding to hammer her with disgusting, unrelenting negative advertising.
@cassandra17lina Infuriates me. She was by far the qualified candidate. Now we have a man who wants to ban abortion nationwide, even in cases of incest and rape.
@InvaderGzim @cassandra17lina Likely not. But it is as if they didn't even try. I hope we are still having elections in six years.
@InvaderGzim @CinnamonGirlE Please bear in mind that North Carolina ousted Republican Governor Pat McCrory after he signed that hateful “bathroom bill” triggering massive backlash from corporations, sports leagues, organizations, and individuals, and flipped that seat BLUE by electing Democrat Roy Cooper. It’s remained blue since then, so it CAN be done at the state-wide level.
@cassandra17lina @InvaderGzim Thank God for Cooper. Next time hopefully.
@CinnamonGirlE @cassandra17lina
Granted, she was the better candidate.
But looking at the results, I'm thinking NC might be in play in 6 years... But I don't think those who voted would have flipped from red to blue no matter what?
Just a thought... Win where you can... And then it's easier to help others later...
