'Historic bloodbath' for Republicans forces change at NC legislature

The startling gains for Democrats in North Carolina’s 2026 midterms, according to Michael Bitzer , were largely driven by dissatisfaction over Republican President Donald Trump. But what happens to North Carolina’s government in 2028, he believes, will largely be up to state legislators themselves. Bitzer, director of the Center for North Carolina Politics and Public Service at Catawba College, shared his analysis of the recent election during a Nov. 12 event hosted by the Asheville Area Chamber of Commerce at The Restoration Asheville. Like most midterms, he said, 2026 could be considered a referendum on the president and his party. Yet the results were nearly unprecedented, he continued, calling them a “historic bloodbath” for Republicans. The last time midterm voters moved toward Democrats so strongly was 1974, following the resignation of Republican President Richard Nixon after the Watergate scandal. Voters in each of North Carolina’s 100 counties, noted Bitzer, supported Democratic Senator-Elect Roy Cooper more strongly this year than they backed Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris in 2024. Cooper ended up winning his race against Republican Michael Whatley by nearly 20 percentage points. The vote shares across all Democratic candidates in both state House and Senate elections were more than

Franklin's offensive evolution tops biggest WNC football playoff takeaways

There are only nine Western North Carolina high school football teams left standing in the NCHSAA and NCISAA playoffs following the second round and state semifinals. Here are our two biggest takeaways from the second round of the playoffs. GROWING PAINS: How 2025 growing pains helped Asheville High football reach third round of 2026 NCHSAA playoffs Anderson Terrell helps Franklin advance to NCHSAA playoffs third round Franklin defeated West Henderson 42-21 to advance to the third round of the NCHSAA playoffs. Franklin has long been powered by its running game, but quarterback Anderson Terrell's emergence has added another dimension to the offense. The senior entered this week with 1,325 passing yards, 15 touchdown passes and just three interceptions while completing 68% of his attempts. "It's all about experience and confidence with Anderson," Franklin coach Josh Brooks said. "He's got both. He's started over 30 games for us at the varsity level. He wants the pressure. He wants the big game atmosphere." With defenses forced to respect both running back Garrett Young and Terrell, Franklin is better equipped to make its deepest playoff run in more than a decade. Tuscola doesn't blink, advances to NCHSAA third round for first time since
