Thanks for all the help we received from DU in ousting Liddy Dole from the US Senate seat that has remained in Republican hands for the past 30 years!
Your efforts have made a difference for all of us.

"Raleigh, N.C. — Support from women, blacks and young people and concern about the faltering economy helped Democrat state Sen. Kay Hagan unseat U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Dole and Beverly Perdue win the governor's race, according to an Associated Press exit poll.
The poll showed that Hagan received more than half of women's votes. Seven in 10 voters under the age of 29 also supported the state senator, along with nine in 10 blacks and nearly six in 10 voters who said they make under $50,000 a year.
The win makes Hagan the first Democrat to hold the seat since Sen. Jesse Helms took it for the GOP in 1972."
