DL Tracking Poll Results — James Van Houten (R) (Round 2)

Last month, 53% of our readers disapproved of Republican Insurance Commissioner candidate james Van Houten, disapproval rating, and 24% were undecided. This month, not much has changed. Van Houten's unfavorable rating has dropped to 47%, and his favorability rating has increased one point, to 25% from 24%. Somehow, people became more undecided about him, which I suppose is a good thing for the Van Houten campaign. Better to be unknown than disliked.

Wilmington Mayor’s Debate — Social Justice Edition

Last Monday night, the candidates running for Wilmington Mayor met at the New Destiny Fellowship Church to take questions from members of the Black Clergy Consortium. All of the candidates showed for this debate, except for Robert Marshall, who, in spite of telling lots of people he's really in, is looking like he may not have the stomach for it. Selara Gatewood was also at this event, and this was probably the first time people got a chance to see and hear her.
