President Biden is heading to North Carolina on Thursday to announce $82 million in new investments to connect homes and businesses in the state to high-speed internet.
He will go to the Raleigh-Durham area in the critical battleground state to make the announcement, alongside Gov. Roy Cooper (D). The funding comes from the American Rescue Plan, which was the COVID-19 relief package Biden signed into law in 2021, and aims to connect an additional 16,000 homes and businesses in North Carolina.
The investment, according to a fact sheet from the White House, will also create jobs in manufacturing and construction to produce “Made-in-America fiber-optic cable that will build out internet infrastructure across the country.”
You're viewing part of a thread.
Politics is simply not the way to make change, they said. Two-thirds of nonvoters agree, for example, that voting has little to do with the way that real decisions are made in this country; they are 21 points more likely to say so than people who voted.
A majority also said they believe it makes no difference who is elected president and that things will go on just as they did before. Nonvoters were 29 points more likely to say that than people who voted. (Read more about why they didn't vote, in their own words.)
And
Nonvoters are also more likely than voters to say that traditional parties and politicians don't care about people like me; the mainstream media is more interested in making money than telling the truth; the American economy is rigged to advantage the rich and powerful; success in life is pretty much determined by forces outside our control; and to feel that most issues discussed in Washington don't affect them personally.
The article already says NC voted trump the last two elections, and I already quoted it...
So I'm going to assume you don't need another source for that
Well I'm going to need a source for why non-voters matter to a president when pandering to a state. They weren't going to vote anyway.
Well I’m going to need a source for why non-voters matter to a president when pandering to a state
What?
You want a source for why a candidate pandering for votes would care about people that aren't going to vote?
Literally the only point of pandering for votes, is to get votes...
If not, what the fuck is the point of pandering at all?
And why are you saying it doesn't work?
That's how Obama and Bill Clinton got elected....
And let me guess, you're just going to ignore everything you were wrong about and ask for a source on that too...
That's called "sealioning"
Edit:
Yep. That's definitely what's happening and worth a block
To get votes... from people who vote.
That's a troll, fyi, I've run into him a couple times now. If you drive him into a corner he'll just start name-calling and block you, so you can't debate him in the future. He does not seem to realize this does not prevent us from leaving our own replies to his posts for everyone else to discuss, without him.
Thanks for letting me know.
Echoing this. He's weirdly obsessed with anything that can even sorta kinda be used to shit on Democrats, and bothsidesism is his default response to literally everything. He will never cede ground on anything, no matter how compelling your counterargument.
