The Latest: AP retracts call in North Carolina Congress race
The AP had called the race for Republican Mark Harris on Nov. 9, after Democrat Dan McCready conceded the election and said he would not request a recount.
Unofficial results show Harris with a lead of 905 votes out of nearly 283,000 votes counted.
The North Carolina board of elections has delayed certifying the results, citing “claims of irregularities and fraudulent activities related to absentee by-mail voting.”
The board voted 7-2 on Friday to hear evidence by Dec. 21 on whether to finalize the result. The board could ultimately decide to hold a new election.
And the following is the diary write-up by DKE’s David Nir summarizing the delaying of certifying the results due to potential fraud:

This could even result in a do-over election!
Can we think of a 41st pickup in the House?
