Cal Cunningham and Elaine Marshall both are very compelling candidates for various reasons.
Cunningham has the support of the DSCC, Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (establishment). vs Elaine Marshall has the support of Moveon.org based on a vote by moveon members.
Also,Elaine Marshall is endorsed by groups that can likely get out the vote on June 22 (or earlier)

"Elaine Marhsall has taken on the same special interests that dominate Washington - and won It's that type of leadership we need right now. Elaine Marshall is the right person at the right time for North Carolina" - Robert Morgan, Democratic US Senator (1975-1981)
Elaine Marshall has unquestioned integrity. I've known Elaine Marshall for a long time. She has served our state without a hint of scandal and has always stood for honest, transparent government." - State Senator Ellie Kinnaird.
WYVBC note: NC State Sen Kinnaird is one of the originators of the Public Confidence in Elections Act, which increased transparency in elections, required paper ballots and audits, and set standards for voting systems and vendors.So Sen Kinnaird knows what she is talking about when she uses the word transparent.
