Bishop has  continued to pick up more same day votes.
Idub, Can you explain why he is doing better with same day votes as opposed to early votes?

ldub23

Republicans always seem to do better with same  day voting. It  might  have to do with they are generally  older and  more traditional.

Bishop has  pulled  out to about  a  4250 margin, 2.3%. Hard to see  how the dem can win now.

What does this hideous close election portend for the 2020 Presidential election?

ldub23

The  media  is  going to compare this  to 2016 when Trump won the district  by 12%, but compared to 2018 the rep increased the  margin from .4% to 2.3%. Maybe  2018 was the height  of the  dem tide.

Turnout  in 2018 was about  280,000. Looks  like this time it will be  about  190,000. Turnout  will be far higher  in 2020.

Y'all NC folk give us a rundown....  It's my understanding this is a stronger Dem district, so this was a statement win for us...

So we won the district with low turnout?

It would appear to be the case. Its  possible dem enthusiasm has peaked.
