Can Mecklenburg County, NC Flip This Election For Harris? Watch This Inspiring Video!

If you want a big burst of adrenaline and insight on the state of the race in North Carolina, watch this video. I am buzzing after seeing it. Drew Kromer, the 27 year old, Dem County Chair of Mecklenburg County rocks.

Here’s the context for the video pulled from the website:

“ Dear friends and readers,

This weekend, I am asking you to do me (and you) a favor. Please find twenty minutes to watch Jessica Craven (of Chop Wood Carry Water) and me interview Drew Kromer, the Chair of the Democratic Party in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina.

I guarantee that if you invest the time to watch (or listen to) the video embedded above, it will educate, motivate, and inspire you. It will encourage you to help get out the vote by canvassing, texting, and phone banking. Most importantly, it will help mediate and control unguided anxiety about the election.

If Kamala Harris can win North Carolina, her chances of victory in the electoral college increase substantially. VP Harris has other paths to victory without North Carolina, but Trump has almost none.

The interview with Drew Kromer is important on many levels:

It will give you a sense of the ground efforts party organizations are making nationwide, especially in Mecklenburg County, which is critical to winning North Carolina.

It will help you understand that Democrats do not face the challenge of convincing voters that Kamala Harris is the right choice but instead face a “turnout” challenge.

It will address your concerns about voter turnout in North Carolina in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene.

It may cause you to pack your car and head for Mecklenburg County to knock on doors!

There is more, but i encourage you to watch the video for the jolt of confidence and inspiration I felt after speaking with Drew.”
