Barack Obama had 50 offices in North Carolina.

The Democratic presidential candidate had offices in the major cities, such as Greensboro, Durham and Asheville. Some had more than one: There were three offices in Charlotte and three in Raleigh, including his central campaign headquarters.

But he also hit smaller rural towns such as Supply and Mount Airy.

Most of the offices were independent operations. Only four were located in local party headquarters.

Although Obama did not have offices in all 100 counties, spokesman Paul Cox said that several in western counties covered bigger regions. 

"We didn't have an office in every county, but every county was hit by our organization," he said. 

After the jump, a complete list.

Some folks in Mayberry are unhappy with Sheriff Taylor.

The Winston-Salem Journal reports that some residents of Mount Airy, the hometown of actor Andy Griffith and inspiration for the fictional town of his T.V. show, did not cotton to a recent video showing him and Ron Howard endorsing Barack Obama.

Some folks, though, don't like to see the actors from their old favorite show taking sides in real-life politics.

"A lot of people are surprised at him, and disappointed, too," Russell Hiatt, who runs Floyd's City Barber Shop on Main Street, said about Griffith.

"Everybody's high on Andy."

But he said he wasn't shocked by Howard doing the skit.

"I'm not surprised with Opie at all," Hiatt said. "He hasn't ever even come here to Mount Airy."

Anothr Mayberry — er, Mount Airy — resident tells the newspaper that she understands why the two would endorse in character.

"Everyone relates to Andy and Opie," she says.
