PCP Tue Nov 5: Election Day!

IN THIS ISSUE: The Runarounds need extras | New Lighting for USS North Carolina

TUESDAYS TOGETHER WITH YOU

Good morning Wilmington!

Today’s the big day we’ve been talking about for so long. It’s hard to believe it’s here and both sides are claiming this is the most important election of our time—though we hear that every year! They might be right this time! At least in my lifetime, I’ve never seen the two parties so polarized. Whatever happens, I’m hoping it can be decided quickly and with dignity, as it has nearly every single election cycle before 2020. If you haven’t done so already–go out and vote. 

Ogden Elementary School

I spoke to a woman at Ogden Elementary who said that the voting line went out around the corner of the building around 6:30 AM this morning.

In today’s Port City Pulse:

  • The Runarounds need extras

  • New Lighting for USS North Carolina
