American Idol runner-up Clay Aiken has won what had been a hotly contested Democratic primary for a North Carolina congressional seat after his opponent suddenly died on Monday.
The final, unofficial vote count that was posted Tuesday and it ruled that Aiken was the winner.
The county-by-county tally of the 2nd Congressional District race posted by the state Tuesday confirmed Aiken got more than 40 per cent of the vote needed to win the three-candidate race.
Aiken will face Republican incumbent Renee Ellmers in November in the GOP-leaning district where Mitt Romney won nearly six in 10 votes in 2012.

Hopefully he will get stomped by the Republican.
If he "comes out" he will win
I thought he was already "out". We have elected because of race, now because of perversion. I suppose our next one will be from death row! At least he'll have a term limit!
God, help us...
