You are showing ignorance if you don't think NC isn't a battleground state. NC has many NE liberal transplants, the 9th largest state by GDP, and went for Obama in 2008. Romney won by a few thousand votes in 2012.
For Trump to be Prez, he only needs to win Romney states plus OH, FL, and PA. As stated above, Romney barely won NC and lost VA, CO, NH, WI, and MI.
