If you were wondering why incumbent Republican Renee Ellmers decided to debate Democrat challenger Clay Aiken, this news might give you a hint. The Civitas survey was conducted Sept. 26-28 among 400 registered voters. It had a margin of error of +-5 percent.

Ellmers’s favorable / unfavorable rating was at 25/28 while Aiken’s sat at 25/35. Forty-seven percent of the registered voters said they were either neutral, or had no opinion, on the two-term congresswoman.

She is polling the same as Steve King. King's district is R+4 and Ellmers district is R+11. Tillis and Ellmers have no appeal to anti-amnesty or social conservative voters.

King is running against an Iraq war veteran. Ellmers is running against a queer.

Ellmers is a HUGE TEA Party disappointment, but I prefer her over Clay the Lib.

We’re not voting for liberal republicans anymore. No thank you! Neither Tillis nor Ellmers deserve to be elected.

Vote for the libertarian candidate or the democrat socialist if you have to.... But not the republican socialists who claims to be for balanced budgets and smaller government. Yet they continue to support amnesty,

That may be true but you at least have to give him kudos for jumping into the political fray. Regardless of positions it’s good if more get involved.

If we all followed that kind of illogical thinking, the House and Senate would be all Dem.

Here, hold ma beer while I vote for a worse socialist. I’ll teach ‘em a lesson.

Elmers for all intents and purposes is a Democrat already. She voted against the Amash amendment with David Price, and Mike McIntyre... therefore she is on record supporting NSA domestic spying.

She also seems to support amnesty.

Exactly!

And they seem to think or believe we don’t do our best to weed out the RINO’s in the primaries.

I can guarantee that when the GOP takes the Senate and gains seats in the House, our side will hold the winners feet to the fire like never before.

Ellmers is one of the handful of Republican Congressional candidates I want to see defeated. I donated to her when she initially won her district as a “Tea Party” candidate but she has been a major league disappointment. Her biggest failure is that she has turned into an advocate of amnesty. She needs to be removed from the Republican House caucus to keep the Amnesty supporters from having the numbers to enable Boehner to allow Amnesty to be enacted.

Her loss (and the loss of several other Republican Amnesty supporters) will be more than offset by new constitutional conservative Republicans who will be newly elected to Congress this year.

Liet’s send this duplicitous liar & sellout back to her nursing career.

The fag has a zero% chance to win, so does the disgrace to his uniform who’s running against King.

That is pretty funny considering your tag line. Perhaps you meant it to be ironic?

So, you’d rather have a DEM; namely, Clay Aiken win - and trust me - he will vote lockstep with the Democrats. I shake my head at the ignorance of some on here. Maybe Clay Aiken needs to go back to his singing career.
