2. Thrilled, but no surprise |
|
JJ is a life long Yellow Dog democrat and his collegues at NASCAR already know it. He actually was a Hillary supporter, so if he does have any influence, it might be on any leftover Hillary supporters (if there are any).
Glad for the endorsement, but it is not unexpected.

3. It was in an email from the campaign |
|
I received an email from "Junior" the other day. I don't know why people are so surprised. All NASCAR fans or drivers aren't Republican. There are many, many old school Democrats left in North Carolina. Off topic, but I grew up about 1/4 mile from Junior Johnson's house and garage, and we used to hear the engines racing all night! JJ's wife is also a friend of mine from way back.
