Tuesday was the night North Carolina’s ninth congressional district would finally decide who would represent them in the House. A consultant for the 2018 GOP candidate marked incomplete absentee ballots for his candidate, causing the results to be thrown out. Despite a new GOPer running, the CBS Evening News took that bad actor and used him to smear all Republicans and suggested the true question the election would answer was whether the GOP could win without cheating.

After failing news anchor Norah O’Donnell pitched the race as a “possible preview for 2020,” correspondent Dean Reynolds began the report by declaring: “The big question in the special election here today is whether the Republicans can hold onto this traditionally Republican seat without cheating.”

Reynolds spent much of the report focusing on the Democratic candidate, Dan McCready:

    REYNOLDS: Democrat Dan McCready is facing off against Republican Dan Bishop because the race last year was won by a Republican who was found to have benefited from absentee ballots intercepted and completed to swing the election to him.

    MCCREADY: Appreciate it.

    REYNOLDS: McCready lost that race by 900 votes, conceded, and then rescinded his concession when the obvious voter fraud was uncovered.

This from the side that registers illegal aliens as fast as they can give em driver's licenses and gives bums cigarettes, booze and bus tickets to the nearest poll.
