Sharepoint query with elevated privileges

Question

A Webpart needs to access a Sharepoint List (read mode). If the user is admin, there isn't problem (works as espected), but if the user hasn't permissions to access, I must use "RunWithElevatedPrivileges" method.

The problem is that seems that the query don't return the correct results. What I'm missing?

        SPList demoList = null;

        SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges(delegate()
        {
            SPSite oSite = SPControl.GetContextSite(HttpContext.Current); // ADDED
            SPWeb oWeb = oSite.OpenWeb();                                 // ADDED
            demoList = oWeb.Lists["nameList"];
        });
        // demoList has 3 Elements (admin and no admin user) OK

        SPListItemCollection collListItems = null;

        SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges(delegate()
        {
            SPQuery oQuery = new SPQuery() { Query = "<OrderBy><FieldRef Name='Date' Ascending='False' /></OrderBy>" };
            collListItems = demoList.GetItems(oQuery);
        });

        // 
        //IF ADMIN
        //collListItems.Count ==>3

        //IF NO ADMIN 
        //collListItems.Count ==>0

You need to create new object with elevated privieges.

SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges(delegate()
{
    SPSite oSite = new SPSite(SPContext.Current.Site.ID); 
    SPWeb oWeb = oSite.OpenWeb(SPContext.Current.Web.ID);                                 
    demoList = oWeb.Lists["nameList"];
});

Also, you should dispose of the newly created objects and there is no need for two delegates.

SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges(delegate {
    using (SPSite oSite =new SPSite(SPContext.Current.Site.ID))
    using (SPWeb oWeb = oSite.OpenWeb()) {
        var demoList = oWeb.Lists["nameList"];
        SPQuery oQuery = new SPQuery
                            { Query = "<OrderBy><FieldRef Name='Date' Ascending='False' /></OrderBy>" };
        SPListItemCollection collListItems = demoList.GetItems(oQuery);

        //IF ADMIN
        //collListItems.Count ==>3

        //IF NO ADMIN 
        //collListItems.Count ==>0
    }
});
