GOP's Mark Harris won't run again in contested North Carolina House race
By Max Greenwood and Rachel Frazin - 02/26/19 02:29 PM EST

Republican Mark Harris said Tuesday that he will not run in the new election for North Carolina's contested 9th District, citing health reasons.

“Given my health situation, the need to regain full strength and the timing of this surgery the last week of March, I have decided not to file in the new election for Congressional District 9,” he said in a statement.

Harris instead endorsed Union County Commissioner Stony Rushing.

Harris initially led Democrat Dan McCready by 905 votes in the House race last year. But state election officials refused to certify him as the winner of the race after allegations of ballot tampering in rural Bladen and Robeson Counties emerged.

Why is ballot harvesting only an issue in districts where the Republican wins...?
