Hopefully, Vernon Robinson (the third-place finisher) will endorse Scott Keadle and put him over the top and defeat Richard Hudson, the former Congressional aide who has establishment support.

The news in North Carolina is mixed.

District 3: Anti-WOT incumbent Walter Jones easily won renomination.

District 7: State Senator David Rouzer narrowly won the primary, will face Mike McIntyre, a Blue Dog.

District 9: In a surprise, ex-state Senator Robert Pittenger finished first place and faces a runoff against Mecklenberg County Commissioner Jim Pendergraph. Pendergraph is a law-and-order ex-Sheriff, while I know little about Pittenger.

District 11: Conservative favorite Mark Meadows finished first place, but fell just short of avoiding a runoff. He’ll face Vance Patterson.

District 13: A dissapointment. Ex-U.S. Attorney George Holding will be the nominee to succeed retiring Democrat Brad Miller. Holding is OK, but nothing great.
