Thom Tillis is not the shiny candidate that the GOP would like him to be. This is going to be about turnout and North Carolina democrats have demonstrated that they know how to turn out the vote. #GAMEON

Many of us donated the maximum to her campaign and to various PAC's supporting her last time around. Not so this time. She was sent to Washington to represent the people and interests of North Carolina, not to be a rubber stamp. She knew that going in and she did not hold up her end of the bargain.

Hagan, a multi-millionaire, will have to drip heavily into her own family fortunes to pick up even a small portion of what she won't be receiving this time around.

Control of the Senate may very well turn on this race. Money will flood in despite some dissatisfaction locally.

Honestly I am disappointed. I have emailed her office on 3 separate matters, using 2 different email address. Two times I got no response at all, once I got a generic form letter that wasn't even applicable to my question but just mildly related, that was my last time.

But both of the first times they did sign me up to get her newsletter- so that means sending me spam I didn't ask for took priority of constituent services.

I think she would do a lot better if she was surrounded by better people.

Still better than Tillis, but I can't get excited.
