Der oberste Republikaner im Senat von North Carolina gibt in der mit 23 Stimmen entschiedenen Vorwahl nach

From the article:

The top Republican in the North Carolina Senate conceded to his challenger Tuesday in a razor-thin primary race despite having President Donald Trump’s endorsement.

Phil Berger, the state Senate president pro tempore for the past 15 years, congratulated his opponent, Rockingham County Sheriff Sam Page, in a race that went to a recount.

„While this was a close race, the voters have spoken, and I congratulate Sheriff Page on his victory,” Berger said in a statement, NBC affiliate WRAL of Raleigh reported. „Over the past 15 years, Republicans in the General Assembly have fundamentally redefined our state’s outlook and reputation. It has been an honor to play a role in that transformation.”

I live here. Long story short, he screwed over his constituents by allowing the deannexation of half of the land in an entire town to a developer that is one of his biggest donors. His primary opponent was a local sheriff. The people here will never vote for the Democrat in the race and will continue to vote against their own interests.

No take backs loser

I’m surprised someone with an endorsement from Trump is bowing out gracefully instead of pissing and shitting and crying and lodging lawsuits.
