According to the North Carolina Democratic website, President Barack Obama received an endorsement from Raleigh, N.C., Mayor Nancy McFarlane along with Durham, N.C., Mayor Bill Bell at the Boylan Bridge Brewpub on Oct.23.
At the bridge, the two were among many others who were overlooking the site where Raleigh’s new transit hub, Union Station, will be built. At the event, McFarlane voiced her opinion on how well she feels Obama has done during his first term.
“In this election, voters in North Carolina are facing the clearest choice they’ve faced in a generation – a choice between two competing visions for the future of our state and our country. President Obama understands what has made North Carolina into the best place in the country to live, work, state a business and raise a family. Which is why I am standing here today to officially announce my endorsement for President Obama for another four years in the White House,” Mayor McFarlane said.
The site’s blog also shared the president’s plan for a second term. The site said that the biggest fundamental differences between Obama and candidate Mitt Romney. Obama wants to grow the economy from the middle out, not the top down. Romney wants to go back to the exact policies that caused the recession and hurt the middle class.
Yet with all this being said, according to Rasmussen poll, North Carolina favors Romney with 52 percent over Obama’s 46 percent.
