Michael Olender, State Director of AARP North Carolina, joined Jeff Hamlin on the WPTF Afternoon News to discuss the findings from AARP North Carolina's statewide election survey. The survey highlights the significant influence of voters aged 50 and older, who made up 54% of North Carolina voters in the 2020 elections and 64% in the 2022 midterms. With 91% of these voters expressing extreme motivation to cast their ballots in November, Olender emphasized the importance of candidates addressing issues relevant to this key demographic.
