Your Perdue received a $4,000 check from someone else with similar associations.

Her son Garrett has even been working out of Charlotte full time for the last few weeks of the campaign.<BR/><BR/>On top of that, Bev is proud to have the support of a majority of the Charlotte Council – the people who work directly with Pat McCrory. They recognize that Bev is the candidate with the leadership and vision to move North Carolina forward as one state.<BR/><BR/>David Kochman<BR/>Bev Perdue CampaignAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451770086337664.post-84116772560504054432008-10-28T14:02:00.000-05:002008-10-28T14:02:00.000-05:00My question is why McCrory in particular and most ...My question is why McCrory in particular and most all Republicans are polling so poorly in your Area Code 919 sample while doing decidedly better in the rest of the state? I would have thought that voters in the 919 Area Code were more aware of the "status quo" issues and overall a better educated pool of voters. So what's the deal, Tom?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451770086337664.post-13182657386093346382008-10-28T13:46:00.000-05:002008-10-28T13:46:00.000-05:00You want to know why Eastern NC hates McCrory?

When eastern NC was under water and truly suffering a major crisis, McCrory traveled in a private corporate jet to the legislature DEMANDING money for his basketball arena (mind you, the citizens of Charlotte were even against it!) He marched into the General Assembly, threw his temper tantrum and walked out.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451770086337664.post-60047662241228641462008-10-28T11:42:00.000-05:002008-10-28T11:42:00.000-05:00Public Policy Polling is owned by Democrats and Ci...Public Policy Polling is owned by Democrats and Civitis is owned by Republicans. Polls are BS propaganda intended to influence how you vote. Make up your own mind and ignore what various polls are telling you the herd is doing.
