The question that remains... will Republicans learn from their coming lessons?

Hello! I recently moved to North Carolina from California and I am not familiar with the area at all. I’ve been checking out what kind of stores I have around me and my options look like Walmart, Food Lion, or Piggly Wiggly. I’m familiar with Walmart although I didn’t really use it in Cali bc we had a cheaper option w better produce nearby. But I cannot figure out the difference between Food Lion and Piggly Wiggly. I was wondering what native North Carolinians views were. And any other advice you have at all honestly. My husband is military so we’re currently living in New Bern but he’s already talking abt moving to Morehead after our lease is up bc he loves the ocean. I’m very happy with how beautiful everywhere has been tho! And it’s so nice and quiet here it’s so much nicer than being in a packed city!

At approx. 9:30 this morning, Jonathan D. Miller, the Libertarian candidate for District 16's NC Senate seat, sent out a tweet stating:

The whole police department is chasing me with guns drawn. This should be fun.

Since then, he has been sporadically posting about having six shots and the high ground. The last post was about 45 minutes ago, as of my writing this, stating

I fucked up and talked to the negotiator on the phone long enough for them to box me in. They have dogs so I'm probably done for.

I've not seen anything on the news about this yet, but the standoff is apparently happening in Cary near the Whole Foods according to a post in r/raleigh (link) so keep an eye out if you live out that way.

EDIT 4:30 PM: As of a few minutes ago, WRAL is reporting that Miller is in custody following a multi-hour standoff in Cary's Lochmere neighborhood. Link

Remember to vote the entire ballot. A couple of cycles ago Cheri Beasley lost by 401 votes statewide. Some 2000 voters in Durham County didn't vote the entire ballot.

Also: hopefully only one more week of those blasted texts and emails from politicians from across the nation pleading for money.

Make sure yall get out and vote! Do the research, learn about what each individual wants to do for you and others! You can’t help make changes when you sit around and don’t get out and vote!

any help would be appreciated - usually spend vacations in carolina beach but i’ll be going to oak island nc this christmas and looking for any dog friendly things to do w my two pups TIA
