Opinion | There Are Battleground States and Then There's North Carolina
Briefly

"Around 8 p.m. on Friday when there was no discernible wind, no rain, no lightning, nothing like that, all the lights in my house died, and I looked out to see my entire neighborhood in darkness. I immediately suspected the election... It's because of all the twists, turns, and tension in North Carolina over the months leading up to Nov. 5. Perhaps more than any other battleground state, North Carolina has been a lode of MAGA extremism and conspiracy theories."
"Here in North Carolina, with its juicy trove of 16 Electoral College votes, Kamala Harris and Donald Trump haven't so much sweet-talked as stalked us... If Harris wins here, she wins the whole shebang, because it means that she benefited from efforts and currents with huge relevance to the other six major battleground states."
