BREAKING: Thom Tillis Wins North Carolina, Bringing GOP Closer to Senate Majority
PJ Media.com ^ | November 10, 2020 | Tyler O'Neil

Posted on 11/10/2020 1:54:14 PM PST by Kaslin

On Tuesday, Decision Desk called the North Carolina U.S. Senate race for Sen. Thom Tillis (R-N.C.). His opponent, Army reservist Cal Cunningham, confessed to having cheated on his wife with a woman who is married to an Army veteran who broke his spine during active service. While some outlets like the Associated Press have yet to call the race for Tillis, Cunningham conceded on Tuesday.

“I just called Senator Tillis to congratulate him on winning re-election to a second term in the U.S. Senate and wished him and his family the best in their continued service in the months and years ahead,” Cunningham wrote in a statement. “The voters have spoken and I respect their decision.”

“Earlier this afternoon, Cal Cunningham called me to offer his concession,” Tillis wrote. “This was a hard-fought campaign and I wish nothing but the best to Cal and his family going forward.”

John James hasn’t given up on his race, either. If he is somehow successful in his challenge, then there will be a GOP majority even without the Georgia seats.

I think we need Alaska to keep Sullivan and to hold one of the Georgia runoffs for a 51 to 49 edge—and avoid the tie breaking scenario of Harris if God forbid, the legal challenges don’t allow PDJT to be reelected.

From what I’ve heard, very good chance Sullivan will win. Though with all the fraud going on this year, only time will tell.

and what about the presidential race in NC? President Trump was much further ahead than Tillis the senatorial race.

My concern is that only brings us to 50 and Harris would break tie if she is VP. We have to win one of the two in Georgia but with the unusual occurrence of having both senators up in same election my guess is we will win one or none as people won’t split party. So it is either 52-48 GOP or 50-50 + Harris Democrats.

Alaska is not in doubt, it just taking time to get all the votes counted there due to distance and Corona precautions.

Tilkis may be a POS, but he’s our POS and we need all we can get. Congratulations, Senator. His stock trading based on inside information re COVID doesn’t seem like it’s going to take him out. The good news is that, if it does, the rat governor is required to appoint a GOP to replace him under NC law

It was Burr in NC who sold his entire portfolio after the covid breifing, not Tillis. Burr wasnt up this year

I hadn’t heard much about this. The GOP needs to read Alinsky’s book. They should be screaming a fine young African American had his Senate race stolen by white suburban male using his white privilege. Make the rats suck on that.

It looks like some of the fraud ballots included both the President race and the James race—they need to find the fraudulent “votes” and get them disqualified.
