Reverend Harris Trying End-Run Around the State Board of Elections

Rev. Mark Harris's lawsuit to get himself declared the winner of the NC-9 congressional seat is right now being heard by Judge Matthew Ridgeway in Wake Superior Court. You can watch live here.

UPDATE
Judge Ridgeway denied Mark Harris's request for certification of his election. Harris will have to wait until a new State Board of Elections is empaneled on January 31st, which will presumably schedule a hearing date for the investigators to present their evidence of what happened in the 9th Congressional District.
