CQ Politics Analyzes NC Congressional Races

CQ Politics published an article today detailing several NC Congressional races.

"North Carolina’s filing deadline elapsed Friday with few surprises, but especially crowded fields are set in the gubernatorial and Senate races for the May 6 primary.

Five Democrats are running, hoping to challenge Republican Sen. Elizabeth Dole in November: state Sen. Kay Hagan, self-employed trucker Duskin Lassiter, businessman Jim Neal, podiatrist Howard Staley and lawyer Marcus Williams. Hagan and Neal were the two best-funded candidates by the end of the year; Hagan reported raising $563,000 with $516,000 on hand by Dec. 31 while Neal reported raising $215,000 including a $120,000 loan to his own campaign."

TrueMeckDem on Myers Park Pat

"My opinion of Pat has changed over the years. I used to think he was truly a man of the people but the longer he has been mayor, the less I think of him.

As with most cities, Charlotte has three political parties: Dem, Rep, and Chamber of Commerce. Pat is definitely the puppet of the COC here. What is good for business is good for Charlotte and Pat ... very personable guy, he has gotten a bunch of Dems in these parts to vote for him but I don't trust him."
