It is now official. The Constitution Party of North Carolina has nominated David Waddell to run for U.S. Senate. Waddell is a member of the party. He previously served as a member of the city council in Indian Trail, NC.
His campaign website is found here.
The Constitution Party does not have ballot access in the state of North Carolina. The state has very strict ballot access rules that effectively lock out most third parties. (Both major parties have made sure of that.)
Accordingly, Waddell is running as a write-in candidate. You have to "write him in" to vote for him.
The Constitution Party is organized around seven esssential core values:
1. Life
2. Religious Freedom
3. Traditional Family
4. Private Property Rights
5. The Second Amendment
6. Anti-socialism
7. National sovereignty
I will have more to report about David Waddell's U.S. Senate candidacy at a later date.
Isn't John Rhodes also running as a write-in? I see Kay Hagan winning this race. There are many registered Republicans that are done with the games that are being played within the party. I myself, am one. For that reason I will be writing someone in. That is why I see Hagan winning. I would rather lose while standing on principal, than win and perpetuate this progressive garbage from the Republican party. I also know MANY would disagree with this point of view.

Yes, Tommy; Rhodes is a write-in candidate. And there is another-- I believe, Barry Gurney. They are all to the right of Tillis.
I definitely sympathize with your point of view. Rove is apparently running ads for Tillis that seemingly put Hagan to his right. (See today's Plott Hound.)
Yes, Hagan is very well positioned to win this thing. There is little enthusiasm for Tillis out there. We shall see.
And if Hagan wins, they are going to try to blame US.
