Republican Thom Tillis clinched a narrow victory over incumbent Democrat Kay Hagan in North Carolinas bitter U.S. Senate race.
With nearly 98 percent of precincts in, Tillis had 48.95 percent to Hagans 47.14 percent. Libertarian Sean Haugh fielded about 4 percent.
Tillis, from Huntersville, held a 50,000-vote lead with some votes from Mecklenburg and other urban counties still out. But several new organizations declared him the winner.

I guess Ole Slick plugging Hagan didn’t help too much.
She conceded on MSNBC
She conceded on MSNBC
I now have a GOP Rep and two Senators to hound....
OBTW, has she conceded on MSNBC yet?
She has conceded on MSNBC?
Oh, well. I guess she has conceded on MSNBC, then.
Just moved down from NJ. Made sure I registered and voted. My wife as well. First time my vote counted.
Thank you for voting. I’m in VA and we are going to go red again soon, if we would all vote!
Slick Willie’s plug was the kiss of death.
I’m enjoying watching MSNBC tonight! They are so full of pus!
How sweet it is!!!
Thank you for helping cancel out a vote from a libtard from the Northeast. Way too many of those in Wilmington....
One of the sweetest bits of news tonight.
Good for you guys and welcome to the south.
Looks like it's over. Tillis 48.93%, Hagan 47.31%k with 99.63% reporting. The Losertarian got 3.75%.
The 4% for libertarian Haugn came out of the Tillis vote.
I hope NC House of reps gets a conservative who can repeal Tillis Everify bill.
The NC fraud was insufficient for some strange reason. Guess Jebbie will claim the credit here.
Those NC counties near VA must be like the state of VA as a whole.
