Senator Thom Tillis on the Edge of a Political Cliff the Battle for the North Carolina Senate Seat

Senator Thom Tillis on the Edge of a Political Cliff the Battle for the North Carolina Senate Seat

https://gorightnc.com/senator-thom-tillis-on-the-edge-of-a-political-cliff-the-battle-for-the-north-carolina-senate-seat/

In the heart of North Carolina, where the Blue Ridge Mountains whisper tales of liberty and self-reliance, the political landscape is as rugged as the terrain itself. Just like the pioneers who settled this land, navigating through untamed wilderness to preserve their freedoms, our Constitutional Republic now faces a pivotal moment in its political journey. The question on everyone’s lips is: will Senator Thom Tillis continue his trek, or will new explorers claim the path to the U.S. Senate?

Are our NC senators' and house members' votes NC politics?

From a mod (after removing a post pointing out our local NC reps' votes):

Our US senators and representatives from North Carolina vote at a national level but that does not make this a local issue.

Who do the NCGOP answer to? Clearly not the people

They actively work to obstruct the will of the people when it goes against their interests. So my question is, who informs their interests, if not the people? Arguably in a democracy, both parties are sensitive to the desires of their constituents. But I've had NCGOP lawmakers literally yell at innocent young residents politely requesting they vote one way instead of another on bills. So, who do the NCGOP serve?

How come NC votes blue for state races, but red for Presidential ones?

NC tends to vote for the Republican presidential candidate. But Democratic gubernatorial candidates have had a lot of success, and North Carolinians haven’t elected a Republican attorney general since 1896. Why is this?

Why are Some of You Turning a Blind Eye to This?

This is a follow up to my previous post where I shared that it's the Supreme Court's fault that Trump won. What baffled me was how there were some folks who said that the Democrats are to blame even though they voted for Harris themselves. To those of you who that feel that way, how is it that you all are turning a blind eye to the fact that polls from late 2023/early 2024 showed even Biden ahead of Trump when the participants were asked who'd they support in a scenario where Trump was held accountable and convicted on J6? This proves that if Biden could even defeat Trump in that scenario, then Harris would have very easily defeated Trump in that instance. I mean, Trump even won the popular vote, there's no way he would have done so had he been convicted for his J6 crimes. The Supreme Court was the reason to why we didn't get the J6 trial before the election, not the Democrats, which is exactly why I blame SCOTUS for Trump's win.

PS- In addition, the fact that some of you are blaming the Democrats for Trump's win also tells me that you believe that they are the ones responsible for the (possible) end of our democracy, which to me is messed up.
