Nearly a quarter of a million North Carolinians have already voted early, myself included. I voted Saturday for @DDAdamsCongress in #NC05. She is clearly the best candidate to #OutFoxTheFoxx in November. Please vote tomorrow if you haven't already!!

WHAT THEY'RE SAYING

ENDORSEMENTS

“I’ve always been impressed by her dedication, her hard work ethic and her demanding, quality work, but when you get down below that, she’s got a big heart and is just concerned about people, and so I think she brings a lot of good skills to any job she might be in,”
Allen Joines
Mayor, City of Winston Salem
Winston-Salem Chronicle
``DD is the answer.
She has been serving this community
well for years and understands a big
range of the people in the 5th District. She has experience in elected office and is more prepared to serve. Jenny is running
a good race, but DD is better prepared both to run in the general election
and to serve successfully.``
Elisabeth Mottsinger
WS/FC School Board
``I am proud to endorse DD Adams as the Congressional Candidate for the 5th District. Her experience, wisdom and passion make her the best candidate NOW and in November. She’s the breath of fresh air NC families in RURAL and urban communities need.``
