Harris has reduced ad buys in the state, while voter turnout in Western North Carolina is showing notable shifts. A Federal Appeals Court recently blocked a challenge to North Carolina's voter registration, which will now return to state court, and there's an ongoing legal issue that may cost the state $77,000 in attorneys' fees to keep a third party off the NC ballot. In political analysis, Mitch Kokai from the John Locke Foundation provided updates on the legal implications of the recent Federal Appeals Court ruling. Brianna Kraemer from the Carolina Journal noted a trend among young voters in the state, with an increase in Republican turnout alongside a decrease of 37,000 Democratic voters. Meanwhile, Harris and Trump are making appearances in North Carolina, and Biden recently stirred controversy by calling Trump supporters "garbage."
