North Carolina: 750k voter purges; Dems win all state races; Trump gets 86k votes with no vote for anybody else [View all]

Make this make sense.

Practically every statewide Democrat in NC won overwhelmingly yet somehow Trump managed to “win”
-Josh Stein, Democrat, won Governor over Mark Robinson by about 800,000 votes
-Lieutenant governor was won by Democrat Rachel Hunt by 150,000 votes
-Attorney General Jeff Jackson defeated Dan Bishop by 125,000 votes
-Superintendent of Education Maurice Greene won by 110,000
-Secretary of State Elaine Marshall won by 120,000 votes

Yet, Trump inexplicably managed to “win" by 189,406 votes while every other Democrat won statewide

(Correction: 86,458 ballots were cast for Trump only without voting for any other candidate or party on the ballot. 5,631,769 total votes and 5,545,311 for governor.)

-Trump secured more votes even in counties that typically run blue
-Lower turnout was largely due to Democrats not showing up (purged )
-Trump improved margins in red and blue counties even closing the gap in Durham by a couple thousand votes and that is the most -In Wake County Harris got about 4000 more votes than Biden did in 2020 but Trump doubled that adding about 8000 votes to his total
-Charlotte, Fayetteville, Greensboro were all places that Democrats really need to win but where Harris actually did worse than Biden 4 years ago
-Trump made inroads among some minority communities -- especially black and Hispanic men -- we don't have the official data yet on voter turnout by race but we do have some clues that Trump won at least 3 different majority minority counties: Nash, Anson county east of Charlotte a place that Biden also won in 2020 and Robeson County -- the most diverse county in the state even in the nation -- 1/3 are white a third black 1/3 Native American Trump got 63% of the vote in that incredibly diverse county in southeast NC

North Carolina removes 747,000 from voter rolls, citing ineligibility
BY ASHLEIGH FIELDS 09/26/24 01:50 PM ET

"North Carolina’s State Board of Elections has removed 747,000 people from its list of registered voters within the last 20 months, officials announced Thursday in a press release.

The State Board of Elections in the release said the majority of those stripped from the rolls were deemed ineligible to be registered because they had moved within the state and did not register their new address, or because they did not participate in the past two federal elections, prompting an inactive status.”

"The purge comes just a few weeks after North Carolina Republicans filed a lawsuit that said the state had failed to act on complaints about ineligible people on voter rolls. In the GOP lawsuit, a Wake County resident in North Carolina claimed voter registration forms in that county did not include driver’s license and Social Security numbers.
By failing to collect certain statutorily required information prior to registering these applicants to vote, Defendants placed the integrity of the state’s elections into jeopardy,” the lawsuit read.
