The man who ran against former American Idol star Clay Aiken in a **rth Carolina congressional primary is dead, the Courier-Tribune reports (http://courier-tribune.com/news/congressional-candidate-keith-crisco-dies-suddenly-home).
Keith Crisco, 71, was found dead in his home, a representative from the Asheboro Elastics Corp, which was owned by Crisco, tells NBC News (https://twitter.com/frankthorpNBC/status/465952592145956864). Reports say he suffered a fall. He was reported (http://courier-tribune.com/news/congressional-candidate-keith-crisco-dies-suddenly-home#sthash.avikU2pa.dpuf) dead at the scene.
Crisco and Aiken were locked in a too-close-to-call primary battle in **rth Carolina's Democratic primary for U.S. House District 2. Crisco was trailing Aiken by just a few hundred votes and was waiting for the final count before deciding if he would press on in the race. Crisco's advisors had told a reporter (https://twitter.com/KellyO/status/463885829484470272) Monday night that they would evaluate what to do next in the morning. The Democratic **minee will face Rep. Renee Ellmers, the Republican incumbent, in the fall. Read more...
