According to the Decision Desk, the president of the United States, Trump (Trump), won the elections in North Carolina and obtained 15 electoral votes.
Cunningham, a former North Carolina senator, called Tillis to admit defeat on the 11th and issued a statement to the media.
“I respect the decision of the voters,” he said. “This result shows that there are still profound political differences in North Carolina and the United States. However, the integrity of our country lies in our beliefs, our trust in democracy and our Our civic values and common humanity, our common vision of caring for each other each other and our firm belief in this exceptional country. “
Tillis announced his victory in a statement on Twitter last week. He said in the statement: “North Carolina! Thank you! This is a historic victory! I look forward to working tirelessly for you and your family in the United States Senate for the next six years.”
“We had an amazing victory,” Tillis said on Election Day night (Nov. 3), “Polls show we are behind and there is no chance of winning, but I think all of you. We visit, call and send messages personally. We let everyone know that truth is important, we let everyone know that strong character is important, and we let everyone know that keeping promises is important. “
Cunningham’s campaign team did not respond to a request for comment.
After Tillis made the above statement on the 3rd, Cunningham’s campaign team responded by saying, “The State Election Commission continues to count the votes. We plan to allow the counting process to continue so that we can hear the voice of all voters. “
In the final weeks of the campaign, Cunningham revealed a sex scandal: the media revealed a text message between him and a woman, and Cunningham admitted that he had an extramarital affair with this woman.
Tillis said that Cunningham’s infidelity to the marriage prevented him from gaining people’s trust.
Tillis’ campaign team manager (Luke Blanchat) said in an October statement: “This scandal shows that Cunningham has flaws in judgment and character, rendering him unsuitable to serve as a United States Senator. He did not apologize or explain. his unethical behavior makes the situation worse. “
The North Carolina Democratic Party said on November 9 that there are still thousands of votes in North Carolina that have not been counted. The tweet read: “Our team is helping to resolve absentee ballots and provisional ballots; we need your help. There are thousands of ballots that need to be counted; this may change the election results.”
Many media outlets predict that North Carolina Governor and Democrat Roy Cooper will be re-elected and Republican Mark Robinson will become Lieutenant Governor of the state.
