Democrats travel deep into Trump country in fight for prize state

6 hours ago

On a Sunday morning in September, the air inside the historic Mt Lebanon AME Zion Church was filled with the sounds of gospel music, prayer - and politics.

“This is a... very, very important, very, very dangerous opportunity,” Reverend Javan Leach said.

“The reason why I say dangerous: because if we don't participate with our voice, and our body, that's just like casting a vote for the other side.”

“Amen,” the congregation shouted.

Located in Pasquotank County, where a third of the population is black, the church is in a rare Democratic stronghold on North Carolina's north-east coast.

I don't like what I am seeing outside the rust belt at all. So much so that I think the republicans have a good chance at gaining in the house and probably gaining at least one more seat in the senate. We better hope to god that we get the white house.

Here are the NC numbers after day 2:
Republicans: 242,000
Democrats: 241,000
Unaffliated: 209,000

After 2 days, total votes = 13% of 2020 NC votes


White: 70.8% (65% in 2020 NC Exit poll)
Black: 19.5% (23% in 2020)

It appears White voters are turning out more aggressively than Black voters in NC after the first 13% are in. Eerily similar to GA.

It will be better for USA and for the whole world if Trump loses and Kamala wins. The Trump cult is mistaken and Kamala is definitely a much better choice from these two. It also would be really nice, refreshing and progressive to finally see a female president of the United States of America. I don't think that Trump should be a president of anything. I unfortunately know some people who are voting for Trump and they are insane enough to be considering very backwards things. The future will be faster with Kamala. The positive changes might happen slightly quicker.

Musk to give away $1m per day to Pennsylvania voters

20 October 2024, 12:43 BST

Tech billionaire Elon Musk has said he will give away $1m (£766,000) a day to a registered voter in the key swing state of Pennsylvania until the US presidential election in November.

The winner will be chosen at random from those who sign a pro-constitution petition by Musk’s campaign group AmericaPAC which he set up to support Republican nominee Donald Trump's bid to return to the White House.

The first lottery-style cheque was given away to a surprised-looking attendee at a town hall event on Saturday night.

The giveaway will effectively help to encourage potential Trump voters to engage in the campaign during the tense final weeks of the presidential race ahead of the vote on 5 November.

Those who sign the petition - which pledges to support free speech and gun rights - will have to give their contact details, potentially allowing AmericaPAC to contact them about their vote.

Shows how corrupt this is, how to buy votes.
