I joined the earlyworm society and voted for North Carolina.

If I had my druthers, Michigan. But if I looked at where the most change is possible, it's gotta be WI for strategy or NC for the moral obligation of it.

I’ll support any of them. I feel like Harris working with Whitmer will build the necessary bridges in Michigan, but I could be wrong.

My Wisconsin-born husband was there recently and returned more hopeful for a couple of his family members he’d previously given up to MAGA. It’s definitely possible.

I can’t imagine NC’s gubernatorial candidate not having down-ballot bad impacts for Republicans. Sure, he speaks for the base, even as many of them hate him because of his race. It’s such a big state. Raleigh/Durham/Charlotte/Asheville can’t penetrate the hollers of WNC and the Cape Fear swamplands. But if there’s a chance, it’s with this candidate. He’s that horrifying and divisive.

Love to hear that. Yeah, druthers would be Whitmer as Harris’s running mate. Trump has beaten the polls here twice. It takes a machine to win the state, so it really depends on who’s on the ticket, hence the down-ballot focus.
