@MatthewFoldi Genuinely weird how much you're posting about this. We don't need to read your fanfics

[Left of Old North @leftofoldnorth]

Remember, a "just outcome" for conservative, Christian nationalist Republicans is that the man and the woman stay together like the Bible says so

[Politics & Poll Tracker 📡 @PollTracker2024]

Semafor: Senator Bernie Moreno’s (R-OH) office responds to domestic abuse claims made against his former son-in-law Rep. Max Miller (R-OH)

“Senator Moreno’s top priority is the safety and well-being of his daughter and granddaughter. While he does not litigate these matters in the media or respond to baseless public attacks, he will do whatever it takes to ensure a just outcome for his family.”

[Team Roy Cooper @TeamCooperNC]

NEW: Whatley campaigned at Victory Baptist Church in Sylva, a church known for protecting an employee who allegedly used his position to sexually abuse children for over a decade.

McMahan was arrested and indicted for 26 child sex offense charges in 2024.

This is the 3rd alleged sex offender Whatley has been tied to.

[Left of Old North @leftofoldnorth]

Telling on themselves. MAGA is not moderate or common sense, and Whatley is a wet noodle in both areas.

Cooper is by far the strongest candidate in the Senate races across the US and it's not close. Whatley is doomed.

[Team Trump (Text TRUMP to 88022) @TeamTrump]

Roy Cooper is following the classic Democrat playbook: run as a moderate, govern as a radical.

North Carolina is facing a choice between common sense and communist crazy in this Senate race.

@WhatleyNC is the Trump-endorsed, COMMON SENSE CHOICE!

[Paul Barringer for Congress @PaulBarringerNC]

Believe it or not, today marks 100 days until the election, that was quick.
This election is about many things. But it can be boiled down to one simple thing, improving the lives of everyone in the district.

Y'all should stick to being against Trump and not against progressives like AES.

[Republicans against Trump @RpsAgainstTrump]

Whitmer defeated Abdul El-Sayed by nearly 22 points in the 2018 Democratic gubernatorial primary.

[Left of Old North @leftofoldnorth]

@WhatleyNC Mikey, we know you're not going to do anything to change that. You're part of the party that wants to make insurance less affordable.

Give us your plan or shut up

[Young Democrats of NC @ydnc]

Could an #ncpol reporter (not banned from his events) please ask who his favorite driver is

[Left of Old North @leftofoldnorth]

In a trend from Q2, we’ve got another Democrat for Congress out raising their opponent. Way to go!

#paulbarringerfornc13 #paulbarringerforcongress #ncpol

[Paul Barringer for Congress @PaulBarringerNC]

June marked the end of fundraising for Q2. We passed the $1 million total raised mark during that time and out raised Brad Knott by over $30k, all without taking a dime of corporate or AIPAC money. If you’re able, go to our website and donate today!

[Young Democrats of NC @ydnc]

.@NCGOP seeing @NCDemParty policies and priorities LOLLLLL

[MELVIN WILLIAMS @MELVINWILL83771]

@NCGOP Whatley is a loser!

[Left of Old North @leftofoldnorth]

God y'all are lazy af. Can't even come up with your own slogans, you just have to literally steal from the Dem social media.

Just creatively bankrupt.

Yeah vote Dems up and down the ballot because Republicans aren't going to protect or improve ANY of these things

[NCGOP @NCGOP]

Happy Monday. Vote Republican.

[Left of Old North @leftofoldnorth]

@AndyGumpsBro @WhatleyNC He didn't indicate he was there, just that he was excited. Read.

Again, all these photos were taken 3 years ago when they reopened the speedway, with money that Republicans voted against. If Cooper hadn't signed it, Whatley couldn't be there for a photo op in the first place.

[Roy Cooper @RoyCooperNC]

Happy race day, North Wilkesboro! We fought to bring the speedway back to life and I’m excited for today.

[Left of Old North @leftofoldnorth]

Lil Mike is just mad he'll never be this cool

[Michael Whatley @WhatleyNC]

Roy Cooper is a fraud.

His entire campaign can be summed up in this picture of him pretending to watch a race that was posted 6 hours before they even waved the green flag. 

I understand that the race started after his bedtime, but he missed a great night in Wilkes County!

[Left of Old North @leftofoldnorth]

Hey genius, this photo is from 3 years ago when they reopened North Wilkesboro Speedway, thanks in part to the $18 mil in the American Rescue Plan funds (y'know, Biden's plan?), approved by the GOP NC legislature, and signed while Cooper was governor.

You're the fake.

@WhatleyNC Breaking out the brand new gingham and jeans for this one, huh Mike

[Paul Barringer for Congress @PaulBarringerNC]
