Republicans win both North Carolina Seats

A seat the President won by 12% in 2016 was won by, what, 2% yesterday? That's not a good election outcome for the GOP, although you can say fairly that there were local considerations related to the scandal that could have affected this.
 
Did I hear correctly that a county in this districts black vote went to the pub slightly and it is 35% black? Didn't listen real close so that might have been heard incorrectly.

I suspect what they said was a county that was 35% black had a final vote tally that was >50% for the R candidate - a common occurrence in the South. Doubtful that someone had that sort of granularity on specific vote outcomes. No one would have actual voter data out there, and no media is paying for an exit poll on something like this.

Well duh! I said I wasn't paying close attention but should have been obvious we wouldn't know who voted for who. I wouldn't be so sure the exit polling wasn't pretty specific.

Who knows what might happen in North Carolina. Their state legislature just pulled a fast one by overriding the governor's budget veto when most dems went to a 9/11 ceremony after being told their would be no votes held. That's some lowlife politicians right there folks. o_O

It's not that it wouldn't be so specific, it's that you'd need to have a media group willing to pay for an exit poll just in one county with a statistically significant sample of black voters. No one is paying for that for a one-off midterm House election.
