Politics NC's Thomas Mills, a Democrat, knows about winning in rural areas because he was the consultant for many successful political campaigns, including former Senator and Lt. Governor Walter Dalton from Rutherford County.
Thomas breaks down how Democrats once built durable voting blocs as moderates, what changed over time, and what it would take to rebuild that connection today.
Plus, Skye and Brian unpack the House’s messaging on the budget, take a look at new polling out of Catawba College, and talk Final Four, and more.
