NCDP GOTV efforts.

This is CRUCIAL.

Any state that is safe one way or another, you can afford to donate your dollars to swing states. IMO, this race is the senate race that makes all the difference to Dems nationally.

Take back the Senate!!!

Is the national campaign not providing funding for this one? Much like FL it's close enough to warrant investment. I think they are relying a bit too much on coattails.

Dems have way better GOTV - but, it appears national GOP just dumped 3 million here hoping to save Burr.

Any money to NCDP and Ross will go to GOTV and ads.

NC is serious about GOTV. You have to be when you're in a swing state that leans Dem

...between a Republican obstructionist and a truly gifted thinker whose presence in the Senate would change it for the better. She's worked for legal and privacy rights and also seems to have been blessed with an innovative vision on economy-building. It would be wonderful to see her win. This has been a real David and Goliath fight and she is within reach of victory.

I wish some more heavyweights would take up her cause. I, like many small donors, am reaching the limit of my spouse-allocated contribution limit. Here's hoping that there are reinforcements out there.
