Tom Jensen from the PPP interprets this week’s Democracy Corps poll:
The closest Congressional district in the state is the 5th, where Virginia Foxx leads Roy Carter 48-46. I really hope the DCCC and other folks take the pick up opportunity in this district seriously. There are races on the Red to Blue list that based on the data I’ve seen are less winnable than this one.
The PPP’s own poll showed a ten point spread (51-41) back in July. But now, at the start of the true fall campaign, with multiple daily events across the district, introductory ads on TV and an increasingly attentive media, people are beginning to understand that there’s somebody running against Virginia Foxx in the 5th district. His name is Roy Carter, a fiery mountain populist with a long record of service to 5th district families and their children. This guy could win!
Here’s a video of Junior Johnson endorsing Roy Carter at a fundraiser he threw for Roy at his farm last week:
