So far, elections since last November have shown a 15 point swing towards the Dem candidate, so if this R+8 NC district performs as the averages are predicting, the Dem could win by up to 7 points.

Next November the economy will be even worse, pushing more voters towards the Dems.

When the momentum is on our side, we don’t have to settle for inferior candidates, and our candidates don’t have to move to the right.
