What happens if you don’t vote?

Gun rights supporters:

Maybe you are dispirited, disappointed, disillusioned, mad as hell at the “party in control” because they “haven’t done anything.” Maybe you are thinking that Democrats like Don Davis and Jamie Ager are “centrist” and “not that bad.” Beyond the fact that facts indicate otherwise, what you see in the accompanying newspaper clipping is what the “Democrat Socialists of America” (actually Marxists) are doing right now. 

What if Democrats take control of the US House and Hakeem Jeffries becomes Speaker? These Marxists will be driving the agenda.

The left is already celebrating…

If the Raleigh News & Observer is to be believed (yeah, I know), “…Democrats have cast 43% of early voting ballots. They surpass the number of cast Republican ballots by 20 percentage points and unaffiliated voters by 10 points, despite unaffiliated voters being the largest registered voting group in the state.”

What is at stake?

US House Districts 1 (Republican Laurie Buckhout, GRNC **** vs. Democrat Don Davis, GRNC 0-star) and 11 (Republican Jennifer Balkcom, ****, vs. Democrat Jamie Ager, 0-star) are considered in play and critical for control of the US House.

You don’t live in those districts? Consider statewide races at play: Obviously, first and foremost is the US Senate race with Republican Michael Whatley (****) vs. anti-gun former governor Roy Cooper (0-star). Yes, polls of varying levels of reliability show Cooper ahead. Does that mean you won’t vote against a truly anti-gun leftist like Roy Cooper?

Then we have critical judicial races. Remember: Only when we got control of the NC Supreme Court that we finally got the voter ID law approved by voters years earlier and the three Congressional seats the previous Democrat-led Supreme Court robbed you of in 2022.

In judicial races, you need to support Republican Sarah Stevens (****) for NC Supreme Court, and Michael Byrne, George Bell and Craig Collins for NC Court of Appeals. Out-of-state leftists are spending big money on YOUR judiciary because they want to use activist judges to defy the will of voters – YOUR will.

Your vote counts!

If you don’t think your vote counts, consider that we elected former Congressman Patrick McHenry by 67 votes. We unseated Congressman Robert Pittenger by 134 votes.

EVERY VOTE COUNTS. YOUR VOTE COUNTS! Early voting ends this Saturday at 3:00 PM. Even if you haven’t registered to vote yet, you can still register and vote on the same day until then.
