House Election Wide Open • Mark Harris Drops Out

"Republican Mark Harris, former pastor of First Baptist Church of Charlotte, North Carolina, and a past president of the Baptist State Convention of North Carolina, said Tuesday he will not run in a new contest ordered last week by the North Carolina Board of Elections."

The election board voted unanimously to stage a new election after four days of testimony including....surprise testimony by Harris’ son, an assistant United States attorney in Raleigh-Durham....'I love my dad and I love my mom,' John Harris said as his father wept nearby. 'I certainly have no vendetta against them, no family scores to settle, OK? I think they made mistakes in this process, and they certainly did things differently than I would have done them.'"
