CNN: North Carolina GOP director open to new election in disputed House race
The executive director of the North Carolina Republican Party says he supports a new election if allegations of fraud in the 9th Congressional District race are proven true and it impacted the outcome of the race.
Dallas Woodhouse claimed to CNN’s Drew Griffin he was so upset after watching CNN’s coverage of the controversy last night, he vomited.
“This has shaken us to the core,” he said.
“We are not ready to call for a new election yet,” Woodhouse added. “I think we have to let the board of elections come show their hand if they can show that this conceivably could have flipped the race in that neighborhood, we will absolutely support a new election.”
Update:
Is @DallasWoodhouse "open" to a new #NC9 election?
I asked him about @jimsciutto's tweet.
“We won't oppose if the non-partisan Board of Election investigators determine the outcome of the race was changed or there is a substantial likelihood it could have been." He also said: pic.twitter.com/jH93hmcFm6
