Durham Mayor Bill Bell Monday is expected to endorse Democratic Senate candidate Ken Lewis in the May 4th primary.
Lewis, who practices law in Durham, had earlier picked up the backing of former Mayor Wib Gulley and former Chapel Hill Mayor Kevin Foy, Rob Christensen reports.
Lewis is among several Democrats seeking the right to face Republican Sen. Richard Burr in the fall. Among them are former state Sen. Cal Cunningham of Lexington and Secretary of State Elaine Marshall.

I am proud to support his campaign. We sure do not need more of the same in DC and Marshal and Cunningham would be exactly that.
Ken in 2010!
