Why doesn’t Trump say anything about this if he’s really concerned about election fraud?
Has there been a single prominent national Republican expressing concern about possible fraud in North Carolina? Because they were really losing their marbles over lawful but slow vote counting last month.

So where are all those Republicans who have been super concerned about election integrity? Kobach? Any thoughts on NC-9, where there's actually evidence of potential fraud?

Get caught up on what the hell is going on in North Carolina's 9th district.

Like the woman I interviewed yesterday, Kinlaw never mailed the ballots. She gave them to McCrae Dowless. She doesn't know what he did with them afterward. She says she has no doubt Dowless wanted Mark Harris and Sheriff Jim McVicker to win. pic.twitter.com/8zQeZvFo4g

NEW via @amyegardner @ludkmr: North Carolina election-fraud investigation centers on operative with criminal history who worked for GOP congressional candidate https://t.co/OVAWuoJIO7

so after all those baseless assertions about 2016 voter fraud from Trump, Kobach and other GOP pols, biggest instance of 2018 fraud appears to have occurred on behalf of conservative GOP pastor-candidate whose campaign hired a felon who stole ballots from elderly black Dem voters https://t.co/JvdHXjWrlZ

Republicans looking for examples of election fraud and vote-rigging should look at the NC-9 congressional election. Yet because the fraud involves a GOP candidate, they are silent. Just like they were in VA-2. https://t.co/6JAZm8JmIe

A stunning statistic as more details come out about the Republican election fraud scheme to help Mark Harris win North Carolina's 9th Congressional District, where his 905 vote lead is within the potential margin of the alleged fraud #NC09 https://t.co/u1OBIUvy7k pic.twitter.com/QqPoc1vR3z

“I think there are a lot of missing absentee ballots from Black and American-Indian voters and I don’t have an answer for where those are and it’s deeply troubling.” — Allison Riggs of @scsj on the #NC09 House race. #Hardball pic.twitter.com/VB8k2PYMOg

This is from a This American Life episode from *2 years ago*. This guy McCrae Dowless, who worked for a contractor to the @MarkHarrisNC9 campaign, was credibly accused of using the same exact scheme two years ago involving absentee ballots in the same county (Bladen Co). https://t.co/SNyvtjS3H4

State officials have begun to explore whether testimonies of fraud could help explain statistical irregularities in the absentee vote count for the Ninth District, which had previously been called by a margin of nine hundred and five votes. https://t.co/y68Gjslglp

NCSBE has started to post documents.
Exhibit 4.2.1.1
Included is an absentee voters "know your rights" flyer. "Only you or your near relative or legal guardian can mail or deliver your ballot to the elections office." #NC09 #ncpol @wsoctv pic.twitter.com/91MenYePUY

Shoutout to the Charlotte Observer for getting on top and staying on top of the vote fraud scandal swirling around Republican House candidate Mark Harris. Local news matters. https://t.co/LtlBjoNamh

and there’s this
The NC GOP is trying to rush through a law that would REQUIRE every county elections board in NC to be chaired by a Republican in election years. These guys just can't stop trying to rig elections.
