“The battle between Keith Crisco, a moderate, business-friendly Democrat, and former American Idol runner-up Clay Aiken came down to a very slim margin Tuesday night: As the vote-count neared completion, Aiken led by fewer than 400 votes,” the Raleigh News & Observer reports.
The winner will face U.S. Rep. Renee Ellmers (R-NC).
