This is a very important special election for North Carolina's 9th congressional district. The republican who earlier in 2018 won this seat but did so by cheating as it was later determined and then he was not seated in Congress, and the elections board in North Carolina concluded a revote for this seat was necessary. So the republican party sees this as an opportunity to start to stem the tide against them and their narrative will be that they are succeeding in that if they win this seat. However, we democrats need to win this seat as well to continue our narrative that the tide is still building against trump and his attempts to rally around this race are moot.
To me both narratives are crucial to each party and that this republican district barely voted in favor of the cheating republican in 2018 it is now seen as a toss up race despite the historical republican advantage. So even a close loss here by democrats is a bit of a consolation but it will be dwarfed by the braggadocio of trump and his acolytes. So the fact remains that to make sure the nails remain secure in the coffin of trump's 2020 election hopes we democrats need to prevail on September 10th, just 11 days from now.
The idea that rump could be crowing on September 11th because of a victory here is cringe worthy but even more so is the idea that republicans cheated the first time and then were rewarded with the seat the second time makes me physically ill. So that doesn't happen, we all must do some focusing on this race and help where we can to either get folks to the polls or donate to the democrat McCready so that he can combat the onslaught trump is bringing in the final days of this race. It is vital that we win because to not try with all we have to keep our blue wave momentum alive is to cast doubt on whether we can have it at the ready come November 3rd, 2020.
