North Carolina board calls for new election in contested House race

Republican NC-9th District Congressional candidate Mark Harris answers questions at a news conference at the Matthews Town Hall on Wednesday, Nov. 7, 2018, in Matthews, N.C.
 
The North Carolina State Board of Elections voted unanimously Thursday to call a new election in the state’s 9th Congressional District after days of hearing evidence of alleged ballot fraud.

The decision came after Republican Mark Harris, one of the candidates in the race, expressed support for a new election, saying that allegations of a ballot-tampering scheme marred the current results.

Harris's request for a new election was a stunning reversal for the Republican House candidate.

  1. As a long time resident of the 9th I have little use for Robert Pittenger, Harris needs to withdraw. Even. His own son, as USADA told him that the ballot harvesting was illegal both in an email. I'd rather see Pittenger back on the ballot than Harris who could never win.
