..... in North Carolina, Democrats hold an early 17-point lead as incumbent, Sen. Kay Hagan, fights for re-election.....

I just hope Kay's "Heart of Gold" holds out til election day (/snix).

"Kay, my campaign gift to you...a three-week supply of digitalis--
to keep your Democrat "Heart of Gold" beating till election day."

.....early voting put Democrats ahead by nearly 18 percentage points among early ballots in Louisiana, where Sen. Mary Landrieu faces an uphill battle to keep her seat....

But where does she live? On her "statement of candidacy" filed with the FEC last January, Landrieu listed her Capitol Hill home as her address. But when qualifying for the ballot in Louisiana, she listed the family’s raised-basement home here on South Prieur Street.

Although Landrieu and her hubby occupy a $2.5 million mansion in DC, Landrieu asserts that she still lives in Louisiana with her parents, saying “I have lived at my home on Prieur Street most of my life and I live there now, when not fulfilling my duties in Washington or serving constituents across the state.”

In a report by the Washington Post, Moon and Verna’s neighbors say they haven’t seen Mary in years. “I don’t think she lives there,” said Fontaine Wells, 65, pointing at the Landrieu home. “She might come visit, but come on now — she lives in D.C. I don’t think I’ve ever seen her.”

Michael Fitzgerald, 61, has lived around the corner from the Landrieus for three decades. He said he sees Moon and Verna Landrieu regularly, as well as Mitch Landrieu, Mary’s younger brother and the city’s current mayor, who lives in a home he owns nearby.

“On Election Day, [Mary] is seen at our polling place accompanying her parents.” He added, “I have not seen her lately..... She’s been in the Senate for — I’ve lost count — 16 years? 18 years?”--SNIP--

Mom and Dad's place---where she's registered to vote.

Where did Mary get the money for the lavish $2.5 million DC residence?
Where did she get the money for pricey DC real estate?
