I just spotted an article that compares the three candidates for the NC Senate in District 31. These three candidates are all Republicans, and there's no Democrat running in that race, so whoever wins the primary (May 2nd) will be the winner of the seat.

Two of the candidates, I do not know: Gloria Whisenhunt and Pete Brunstetter. The third, however, I am familiar with: Nathan Tabor. He's been a visitor and even bought some ads here, so I'm already biased towards him -- oh, and he was also in attendance at the NCCLC this past weekend (see his link in the upper left), so that's two points for him as far as the Ogre is concerned.

Looking at some of the details in the article, Brunstetter's right out, as far as the Ogre is concerned. He supports welfare for businesses (called "incentive" programs). Sorry, I'm for SMALLER government, not larger, so I can't possibly support him.

Tabor also supports tort reform -- stopping all those lottery lawsuits that people use to suck money from anyone who has any. AND he came down big on the second amendment, mentioning that he'd oppose the various gun restrictions that DO show up every year.

That seals it for me. The Ogre officially endorses Nathan Tabor for Senate in the 31st District (for whatever that's worth).
