NC Republicans have some serious concerns this year.
HB2 (The "bathroom law") is a huge slap in the face to the GOP, and is costing millions of dollars to the state. Many companies have pulled plans, the most visible being the NBA moving the all-star game out of Charlotte. The GOP will pay heavily for that.
Another is the GOP's unconstitutional voting laws, that have been struck down and they are STILL trying to waste tax-payer dollars to fight it.
The GOP's absolute dismantling of our education system, which was at one time a great system and is now 49th (I think) in the US.
There is also McCrory's ties to Duke Power, the Dan River Coal-ash spills and general chroniism with the power industry.
I realize that the last example can and does apply to most politicians, and it knows no party lines, but these examples, and other similar ones have have made NC the laughing stock of the nation, and most of us are fed up with it. I am pretty sure McCrory will lose reelection to a fairly popular Roy Cooper, and that the GA may remain republican, but will take some hits too.... Just my prediction.
...If Trump wins here, it will be by a tight margin, and I will be embarrassed for the state I love.
The highlighted section is 100% false, NC Schools are currently ranked 19th in the nation!
As for as the presidential election, Hillary must be pretty scared that she isn't going to win NC because every other commercial on TV is an ad for her.

The difference is she doesn't to win NC. If she wins there it means she's probably willing every other battleground because in past elections it's been the most Republican leaning one. It's vital for Trump but not so much for Hillary.

It's probably more critical for NC voters to dump McCrory as the governor.
