#NCPOL Establishment Democrats are losing their primaries against more progressive candidates.

In my district and the race I’ve been posting about, Foushee (backed by crypto and AI companies) won over Nida Allam. HOWEVER, the less than 1% margin means a recount is likely and the AP has not called the race, despite Fouchee declaring victory.

The Trump-backed leader of the NC Senate spent $8.6M to try to win his race. His opponent spent $80,000. The Trump-backed clown is down by 2 votes in a District that had around 26,000 votes cast. #ncpol

This is a stunning thing to see first thing in the AM: #PhilBerger trailing by 2 votes.

These are the results as of now from the #NC board of elections. I hope #SamPage keeps that lead!

And yet another lesson in EVERY VOTE COUNTS.
