North Carolina's 5 open congressional seats
drawing candidates in droves
Manistee News Advocate | Gary D. Robertson, Associated Press
February 29, 2024
With five members of North Carolina's U.S. House delegation declining to
run this year, next week's primaries have attracted dozens of Republican
candidates seeking what could become extended time on Capitol HIll.
Some of the turnover can be attributed to redistricting - the
REpublican-controlled General Assembly last fall approved districts skewing
rightward, prompting Democratic Reps. Jeff Jackson, Kathy Manning, and
Wiley Nickel to forgo reelection bids.
Compared to a map drawn by state judges for 2022 elections that resulted in
Democrats and Republicans winning seven congressional seats each, the
latest map makes it likely the GOP will win at least 10 of the 14 seats,
according to election data. These seat flips could benefit national
Republicans trying to retain what is now a fragile House majority in 2025.

WG Economy: The President's State
of the Union Challenge
WG Economy | David Winston
February 28, 2024
The President's State of the Union address is coming up next week on March
7. White House operatives view this as a reset moment and the biggest
opportunity that the President has to make his re-election case on a
national stage. Politico reports that one of the themes he will emphasize
is food inflation, blaming price gouging, and corporate greed.
Since the most recent inflation report showing inflation still over 3%, our
new numbers for Winning The Issues (February 24-25, 1000 registered voters)
show the President's economic job approval has not budged since the end of
last year. Our numbers show his handling of the economy is underwater at
35-59 approve-disapprove, having been at 37-55 in December.

WG Discussion Points: Current Trending
Of Wages Versus Inflation
WG Discussion Points| David Winston
February 23, 2024
As President Biden goes into his re-election campaign, one of the biggest
challenges he faces is convincing voters that he has made progress on
inflation. In reaction to last week's concerning inflation report that CPI
remains above 3%, the White House has tried to emphasize other aspects of
inflation and wages, making the statement that the "report shows that wage
growth has been the strongest of any economic recovery in 50 years." While
hourly and weekly wages have recently begun to outpace inflation in the
past year, weekly wages fell behind inflation in this last report. Overall
the cumulative price increases that consumers are experiencing have
resulted in their purchasing power (based on either hourly or weekly wages)
not keeping up.
