Amid accusations of corruption and insider deals, Sen. Kay Hagan (D., N.C.) declined an invitation from Time Warner Cable to take part in a debate with her Republican opponent on Capital Tonight. Hagan's empty chair was visible throughout the debate.
Many questions have been raised regarding taxpayer money being used to fund physical plant projects for companies owned by Hagan's family.
Additionally, it appears that these Hagan family businesses received various tax breaks from the state.
