FILE - In this May 12, 2016, file photo, House Speaker Paul Ryan of Wis. speaks with reporters on Capitol Hill in Washington, following his meeting with Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump. It’s long been clear that Ryan is, shall we say, not wholly comfortable with Trump’s presidential candidacy. The announcement of Ryan and Trump’s first joint appearance of the campaign on Oct. 8 in Wisconsin _ just four weeks before the election _ was simply the latest reminder. The third paragraph of Ryan’s release about the event says that Trump “will also join Wisconsin Republicans” at the annual party festival in Elkhorn, a small city in Ryan’s congressional district.

FILE - In this April 25, 2016, file photo, State Rep. Chris Sgro, D-Guilford, who is also executive director of Equality NC, leads a group carrying petitions calling for the repeal of House Bill 2 to Gov. Pat McCrory's office at the state Capitol building in Raleigh, N.C. As North Carolina has a bit of an identity crisis, its election for governor and even president will be a referendum on the state’s right turn and contentious new laws. &quot;North Carolina IS a progressive state,&quot; insists Sgro. &quot;What really happened is that in a low-turnout year, Democrats lost in 2010, and Republicans slammed our state with the worst possible redistricting that turned everywhere in the state into unwinnable conservative districts.&quot; (Chuck Liddy/The News &amp; Observer via AP, File)
