Christopher Bowen: Senior migration

Read with interest the Aug. 22 news article “N.C.’s changing voter base hurts trump in key state.” Truth be told I am growing weary of the continual anti-Trump slant in the news. While I recognize there has been an influx of young professionals to the state, why does the reporter neglect to mention the increased migration of seniors (myself included) to the Carolinas? A migration I believe is turning this state into a “New Florida.”

I look forward to the November vote to learn who has the pulse of the Carolinas.
