“The North Carolina Republicans Who Are Defecting from Trump” focused on members of the Transylvania County Board of Commissioners who have left the North Carolina Republican Party and say they will not support Donald Trump in the 2020 election. Brock photographed the assignment in Brevard, NC in late August.
