N.C. GOP officials may try to keep Donald Trump out of the primary. They shouldn’t.

N.C. and Virginia officials want candidates to pledge support for the eventual Presidential nominee.

Trump the only Republican who has declined to do so.

It’s a bad idea for N.C. voters.

In case you missed it, we said last month that Donald Trump wasn’t going to win the North Carolina primary.

We also said it two weeks ago.
.
We still feel that way. But we think it should be your call.

Politico reported last night that the North Carolina GOP is contemplating a new requirement that candidates pledge to support the Republican presidential nominee, no matter who it is, and not run for a third-party bid. If a candidate doesn’t make the pledge, he or she won’t be on the Republican primary ballot on March 1.

  1. I had a reply going about how we should contact or reps, but that won't be needed.
    Apparently this story caught fire and the assumed blow-back was severe enough that they've already backed away from the idea.

    Update, 6 p.m.: After letting the story grow nationally Tuesday, NCGOP Chairman Hasan Harnett finally ended the talk of Trump’s possible N.C. primary exclusion.
    “We will have a fair primary election and I welcome all Presidential candidates, including Donald Trump, to our great state,” Harnett said in a statement.

    1. He has a chance though if Hillary fades and they select Biden, there should be others with a good chance also.
