Malone files for NC Senate today

Submitted by cjmalone on Tue, 02/09/2010 - 12:03am

It was a good feeling to finally make the past several months of campaigning official by filing today for the NC Senate, Dist. 15, at the Wake County Board of Elections.

The Republicans were there in force, but I had Democratic Party company after a while. At this point, I am the only Democrat running for the party nomination, but I won't know for sure if I will be the nominee by virtue of being unopposed until filing ends on February 26. I may make it and it would save money and time to be able to focus soley on beating the incumbent, Rep. Neal Hunt, in November. Yet, a qualified Democrat has a perfect right to run and who am I to begrudge democracy running its course? What will be, will be.

Who wins this one will make a big difference in how the people are represented. It is up to the people to say no to the Republicans, who now lick their chops with the expectation of taking of control of the Senate and House in NC.

This cannot be allowed to happen. Do you want Republicans writing the new political district lines that will be in effect for the next ten years? It's their right to do the design, if they are in the majority in 2011.

Help me, folks, and send a contribution to me. Invest in literally saving our democracy in NC.

Here's a link to the donations page, folks. Can you do $10 today?

Thanks, James

Thank you all for your support. Yes, $10 from many folks can go a long way.

One of the Republicans asked me at the filing, only because he figured out I was a Democrat, "How can you look at yourself in the mirror in the morning?"

I replied that I had no problems looking into the mirror, etc. But this is how these Grim Reapers think of us. We must respond with our $10 or what ever to fight them.

Again, thanks to you all,

Republicans don't see themselves

in mirrors, so it was probably an honest question.

Progressives are the true conservatives.

This is an NC Senate seat that is reasonably in play

Taking the NC Senate seat 15 from GOP-incumbent, commercial real estate mortgage writer, and developer, Neal Hunt is possible.

Who got this country into the housing bubble? Greedy real estate developers and unethical mortgage writers. Both are Neal Hunt's brothers in irresponsiblity.

Knock off Neal Hunt in November!

 

Good luck on your crusade, I mean, campaign

Is the site still under constructionist, or did it just not load right for me?

Not a link, yet. Sorry. Just

Good luck Charles. I filed on Monday myself. I know you've been working on your campaign for awhile. It's going to be an exciting, and I hope victorious, year.
