Why did Trump win Robeson County?
The southeastern corner of North Carolina is a low-lying area in one of the poorest sections of the state. It is the home of the Lumbee Indians, the largest Indian tribe east of the Mississippi River. The town of Lumberton is near the center of the county. It is poor farming country, and is heavily wooded yet rather swampy.
I became rather familiar with the area when our battalion was called to aid the locals in fighting fires in the summer of 1956. The county was about 90 miles southwest of Camp Lejeune where I was serving with the 1st Bn, 6th Marines.
