- North Carolina Republican Mark Harris said on Tuesday that he will not run in the re-do of a U.S. House of Representatives election that drew national scrutiny because of ballot fraud.
The unanimous vote by North Carolina’s bipartisan elections board followed four days of evidence showing an operative for Harris’ campaign had orchestrated a ballot fraud scheme in the state’s 9th Congressional District. McCready plans to run again, although a new election date has not yet been set. The outcome of the country’s last unsettled 2018 congressional contest will not change the balance of power in the Democratic-controlled House of Representatives.
Residents of at least two counties in the district testified that Dowless and his paid workers collected incomplete absentee ballots and, in some instances, falsely signed as witnesses and filled in votes for contests left blank.
