Mark Harris calls for new election in North Carolina House race
The Hill ^ | 02/21/2019 | Max Greenwood

Republican Mark Harris on Thursday called for a new election in North Carolina’s 9th congressional district, saying that allegations of ballot tampering have shaken the public’s confidence in the race’s outcome.

Harris’s request, which came at a hearing of the North Carolina State Board of Elections, was a stunning reversal for the Republican House candidate, who has for months urged state elections officials to certify him as the winner in the race.

--This is a developing story.

What is legal in California is not legal in N. Carolina.

Evidently, he now has proof that these surrogates were provably breaking N. Carolina law.

I’d like to see them apply it to nursing homes.

Election theft has nearly been perfected.

Partner, u got that right!

Many Freepers already know that the DemonRat party will count and recount until the decision is made the DemonRat candidate has more votes than the Republican candidate.

Partner, words can not even express how P.O.ed we are on the outcome of this election.

Harris should not run.

He is tainted. His own son testified against him. He is finished.

Rob Pittenger should run again, or some other NC GOPer.

Harris is finished.

The GOP should run better candidates. Period.

“ONE suspect GOP race vs. 12 stolen Dem seats in CA alone that NO ONE is even questioning. “

Because ballot harvesting by anyone at all is LEGAL in CA, and it’s not in NC. Nothing to question in CA since it’s legal, right? lol it’s not legal for the harvester to fill out the ballot, but how do you prove that?

Harris is just setting up the Hollowoodies to flood NC with their big bucks. Helps with the economy.

And you can bet your bottom dollar the democrats will “win it” and Harris will not say a word and the NC Republican Party will fold like a tent.

All politicians suck/screw Us/lie/cheat & steal and in general can’t be trusted.


You are over generalizing. 95% of politicians give the other 5% a bad name—and the 5% are elected to office at a much lower rate proportionally than the 95%—so when one gets to office holders it is 98%+.

Yeah, I think you are right. When the man suddenly remembers that he was in fact warned that people working on his behalf were engaged in some shady doings... it’s time to find another candidate before we hand the election to the other side.

I believe the GOP Incumbent who Harris defeated in the primary will run for reelection and eventually win.

I was thinking the same thing. Crazy that this kind of thing is perfectly legal in California. And ... gasp! ... illegal and corrupt in N. Carolina.

Republicans have zero survival instinct.

When a Democrat is down by a slim margin, they will demand recounts until they are up.

When a Republican is down by a slim margin, they will meekly concede the race.

When a Democrat is up by a slim margin, they will demand the race be called for them.

When a Republican is up by a slim margin, they will call for a new election so they have a better chance to lose.

The article says he’s had two strokes following an illness and has some memory problems. He may not be healthy enough to run again.

The cheating is done at the County Recorders Office where the final count is reported. So it comes down to who rules each county recorders office

New cheating tools are :

Early Voting

Provisional Ballots

Vote by mail only

Electronic voting machines
