North Carolina Holds Special Election for 9th District Seat
-----------------------------------------------------------

Voters in North Carolina's 9th District head to the polls today for a
special election - the final uncalled election from last year's
midterms. Last November's race was never certified, after evidence of
voter fraud started to emerge and was linked to Republican Mark Harris's
campaign. Harris dropped out of the race in February. Democrat Dan Mc
Cready now faces off against pro-Trump Republican Dan Bishop. Trump
spoke at a North Carolina rally in support of Republican Dan Bishop
Monday night. During his speech, he railed against sanctuary cities and
made false claims about illegal voting in California.
