Republicans have officially surpassed Democrats in North Carolina voter registration for the first time in the state’s history, marking a dramatic political shift in one of the nation’s most closely watched battleground states and a development Republicans tell Fox News Digital shows the effectiveness of the Trump agenda.

Over the weekend, North Carolina State Board of Elections data showed registered Republicans now slightly outnumber registered Democrats statewide. As of early January, the state reports approximately 2.315 million registered Republicans compared to 2.313 million registered Democrats, giving the GOP a narrow but historic edge.

"Republicans are crushing Democrats’ voter registration advantage in North Carolina and taking control statewide thanks to Michael Whatley’s leadership," RNC Chairman Joe Gruters exclusively told Fox News Digital.

"President Trump’s America First agenda is winning. Democrats are failing, their out-of-touch liberal agenda is being rejected, and voters are done with Roy Cooper and Josh Stein."

Well now, bad news for the dems.

I'm sure the dems here will be along to tell me how it could not be so.

They were (sadly) heading in the same direction as Virginia due to their transplant problem.
