Since 2004 unaffiliated voters in North Carolina nearly doubled and rose 86 percent by 2012, outpacing 16 percent growth for Democrats and Republicans over the same eight years. The data highlights shifting political affiliations across the state.
Gaston County Democrats call rising unaffiliated registration alarming as Republicans cite GOP gains in the General Assembly. Analysts note many unaffiliated voters lean toward one party, with issues of gridlock and distrust shaping choices. Local party leaders welcome unaffiliated participation and seek outreach.
