In North Carolina, there are more registered Democrats then Republicans in the populous. Republicans were able to gerrymander the districts and skew the demographics so much that it’s almost impossible for a Democrat to win this year, turning the majority control over the the GOP.
I think ABCDE is asking about how this matters for President. Since North Carolina is not Maine or Nebraska, winner takes all. So if you’re right, and more Dems turn out than Reps in NC, then even as NC goes redder in the House, it’ll still deliver its ECs to the Blue…assuming of course the now gerrymandered State government doesn’t call the election stolen and refuses to certify the vote.
I think that’s what we’re going to actually see more of. A partisan power-grab by Conservatives by refusing to listen to the will of the people.
Sorry, I get gerrymandering, I mean how it works in that state specifically for presidential elections.
