Thanks, actually I already read most of that stuff. As I posted earlier, now it is after the election and we know now that the black vote fell short in every state, not just NC. Blacks simply failed to turn out in the same numbers they did in 2008 and 2012 across the board.

Doesn't this negate the claims of voter suppression that were being made in NC prior to the election?

It also seems much ado about nothing when you consider that Obama only won by 15,000 votes in 2008 and Romney won by over 100,000 in 2012.
