The Fifth District has many conservative Democrats who continue voting for Foxx. In order for a Democrat to win he/she will have to be moderate and run a campaign which portrays Foxx's actions and voting record as harmful for the district. Foxx has been losing her home county for the past two election cycles. If we could manage a defeat in the Republican strongholds around the city of Winston-Salem we would oust her from office. The Fifth District is gerrymandered to where it is predominately Republican all around the city of Winston-Salem. Winston-Salem itself is Democratic and mostly in Mel Watt's District (NC12). There needs to be a redrawing of the districts to make them more competitive! David Crawford is correct. The Fifth District has many conservative Democrats who continue voting for Foxx.

Hopefully the people of that district will never make such a mistake again. She really should be terminated. Hopefully the people of that district will never make such a mistake again.
