Does winning NC count as breaking the "solid south"???

[Motown_Johnny]

I would say yes, but maybe it is just me

1. Hell yes it does.

I'm from NC, and it's part of the "solid south." If it goes blue, it'll be great! :)

3. amazing.. not just that a Dem did it, but that an African American did it.

I love this win more and more every minute

2. I say YES. Winning VA and NC means winning the "Tidewater South"

away from the rest of the South, including the "Mountain South" (KY, WV, TN) and the "Deep South" (SC, GA, AL, MS, LA)

(FL and TX are in categories of their own in the South)

4. Yes, absolutely. I love North Carolina and the outer banks.

5. Of course--this is the state Jesse Helms represented.

6. VA already did that, I think

No?

7. Breaking? No. Shrinking? Yes.
