Conservative columnist Paul Sperry is sounding a warning for Republicans.
“SCOOP: Trump campaign fears >530k Trump voters in western NC cd be disenfranchised by Helene,” Sperry tweeted on Tuesday. “In fact, 26 of 28 counties hit by flooding voted for Trump in '20. ‘There's a 4-to-1 disparity (vs Biden/Harris voters). We're very concerned,’ a Trump insider said. NC=16 electoral votes.”
Now that his potential votes are on the line in flood-ravaged North Carolina, Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump’s campaign has asked the Democrat-controlled State Board of Elections, the legislature, and the Democratic governor to offer those voters exactly the sort of access he and his minions are suing to deny everywhere else.
