Judge declines to certify Republican Mark Harris as victor in controversial 9th Congressional District
RALEIGH (WTVD) — A judge declined Tuesday to certify Republican Mark Harris as the winner of the 9th Congressional District election.
The judge said Harris’ legal team did not prove that the North Carolina Board of Elections had a legal obligation to certify a winner of a contested election on a specific timeline.
Republican Mark Harris and Democrat Dan McCready are in a battle months after Americans cast their ballots in the race. Harris had about 900 more votes than McCready, but investigators said absentee ballots in the district appeared suspicious.
