NC Senate race next year will be a major test of the NC state courts green lighting all manner of election chicanery, in the manner of the Riggs-Griffith Supreme Court election FUBAR, with an honest win by a Dem/progressive at the point of now being overturned.

Right now, the Democratic Party in NC could run Christ himself, and still lose by adverse court decisions.

I just hope that—regardless of the outcome—it's not yet another famous NC razor-thin margin of victory.

Even if our nominee wins 100% of the vote, expect Tillis to be seated-the North Carolina's Supreme Court has shown it will steal elections (I fully expect North Carolina to also have 14R-0D Congressional Delegation post 2026 thanks to the Supreme Court just stealing elections.)

That depends on how the U.S. Supreme Court rules on the NC Supreme Court election.

If they're allowed to annul 63,000+ votes, it doesn't matter how big a margin of potential victory Democrats get.

I don't see Tillis pulling a Griffin if he loses. In his two Senate races, he won by the skin of his teeth both times. If he loses outright by several points or by the same margin, he will likely concede.
