Why is it allowed? How can she honestly say she is a resident of NC when her husband cannot even vote for her?

He may actually have some magical powers. I remember he did some TV ads about some medicine that could give you magical powers. You never can tell these days.

Liddy has been known to talk about her husband's visits "back home" - by which she means Kansas.

I would like to know if Bob Dole can vote for Liddy in NC...

Freedom's Watch making calls on Hagan

Freedom's Watch is calling North Carolina voters about Kay Hagan.

The Washington-based conservative lobbying group is making automated calls to North Carolina voters that say Hagan is soft on illegal immigration.

As with some other third-party efforts, the calls are not legally allowed to be coordinated with either Hagan's Senate campaign or U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Dole's. They also do not mention the campaign, instead focusing on the issue and encouraging voters to call Hagan.

Greensboro blogger Ed Cone has reported receiving the calls, as has the Dole campaign's headquarters.

Update: Dome readers report receiving calls from the Change to Win Federation, a coalition of the Service Employees International Union and other unions, that promote Hagan.

Second Update: A BlueNC blogger and an N&O staffer report receiving a robocall from the Associated Builders & Contractors Free Enterprise Alliance criticizing Hagan.
