Donald Trump wins North Carolina in 2024 election as swing state goes red

They are doing the worst job on a hurricane that any administration has ever done,

Trump said, pointing to the Federal Emergency Management Agency's resource distribution efforts

David Axelrod (political consultant)adviser

I think it is more likely than not that he wins Georgia and North Carolina, but I tell you, I mean I've seen polling from those states in the last 48 hours—he's been in North Carolina like four times over the weekend,

Axelrod said

If there's one state that could bite you in the a**, it's North Carolina."

Highlighting the importance of winning the state, one unnamed Trump campaign official recently told NBC News

Kamala Harrisvice President

I mean, it's a combined signal, that's what the Selzer stuff is about too,

Murphy said, referencing a recent surprise poll which showed Harris ahead of Trump by three points in deep-red Iowa

Democrats do not have a single county out of all 100 counties where they have more votes than they did in 2020,

said Simmons

You have now 1.4 million plus Republicans that have gone out to vote, and we still have over 90% of our Election Day vote from 2020 still to come out, ... So we encourage everybody to make sure to get in line, stay in line, and cast your vote."

Simmons told Newsmax's "Wake Up America."

It's going to be a long road to recovery and we need President Trump there to make sure that western North Carolina is not forgotten,

he continued

People can't afford four more years of Kamala Harris in this economy, which has just been a burden upon everybody,

he added

They're big, and the voice is holding up—just about barely,

Trump added during his speech

You know, I was gonna get out of here fast. I'm doing four of these things today."

During a campaign rally in North Carolina on Monday, Trump—the Republican Party's presidential nominee—said

Both the Trump and Harris campaigns have invested significant resources in North Carolina to win its 16 votes in the Electoral College,

Peter Francia, the director of the ECU Center for Survey Research, said in a statement

The reason for that is clear: North Carolina is still too close to call, and its electoral votes could be critical in deciding the winner of the presidential election,

he added
