Question: In what year did voters from WSOE's state once again vote for someone from Mayor Turner's party?

in a reversal of alignments, since the late 1960s the republican party has grown more prominent within the state based on an influx of primarily white voters (the majority in the state) from the democratic party. by the mid-1990s, it became the state's dominant political party. <SEP> The station serves as a creative outlet for students and as a means for students to develop skills for professional broadcast careers. WSOE offers a variety of opportunities in news shows, sports broadcasting, artist interviews, and music technology. Limelight Records, Elon's student-run record label, has worked with WSOE to promote its artists through live sets and interviews on air. The station aims to promote local artists through ticket giveaways, band interviews, and playing these musicians' music over the air. WSOE is a non-commercial student-run college radio station based at Elon University in Elon, North Carolina that broadcasts at 89.3fm. <SEP> North Carolina's party loyalties have undergone a series of important shifts in the last few years: While the 2010 midterms saw Tar Heel voters elect a bicameral Republican majority legislature for the first time in over a century, North Carolina has also become a Southern swing state in presidential races. In the 1990s, Democrat Bill Clinton came within a point of winning the state in 1992 and also only narrowly lost the state in 1996. In the early 2000s, Republican George W. Bush easily won the state by over 12 points, but by 2008, demographic shifts, population growth, and increased liberalization in heavily populated areas such as the Research Triangle, Charlotte, Greensboro, Winston-Salem, Fayetteville, and Asheville, propelled Barack Obama to victory in North Carolina, the first Democrat to win the state since 1976. Since Southern Democrat Jimmy Carter's comfortable victory in the state in 1976, the state had consistently leaned Republican in presidential elections until Democrat Barack Obama narrowly won the state in 2008. In 2012, North Carolina was again considered a competitive swing state, with the Democrats even holding their 2012 Democratic National Convention in Charlotte. However, Republican Mitt Romney ultimately eked out a 2-point win in North Carolina, the only 2012 swing state that Obama lost, and one of only two states (along with Indiana) to flip from Obama in 2008 to the GOP in 2012. <SEP> both the council members and the mayor serve four-year terms; none face term limits. council members are nominated by their wards via a ward-level primary held in september. the top vote-earners from each party then compete at-large for their ward's seat on the november ballot. in other words, on election day the whole city votes on all the council races up for that year. council elections are severed: wards 1, 2, and 4 (as well as the mayor) are up for election in the same year (most recently 2011), while wards 3, 5, and 6 share another year (most recently 2013). <SEP> The city of Houston has a strong mayoral form of municipal government.
