North Carolina Updates: 5, 8, 11, 13

Some news on districts in North Carolina:
  • In the 5th:Republican Virginia Foxx still has a commanding lead over Democrat Roger Sharpe, 56,000 to 38,000 votes
  • In the 8th: Same situation here, with Republican Robin Hayes leading Democrat Larry Kissell, 35,000 to 28,000 votes
  • In the 11th: A better story to tell here, with Democrat Heath Shuler erasing an early deficit to lead Republican Charles Taylor 68,600 to 62,400 votes.
  • In the 13th: Democrat Brad Miller now holds a slight lead over Republican Vernon Robinson, 12,500 to 12,000

Numbers are rounded.

UPDATE (8:00 p.m.) Looks like these numbers might hold; in fact, the 11th has just been called for Heath Shuler.
