Bo Hines (NC-13) Won’t Commit to Accepting Election Results

Hines refused to respond when asked by Raleigh News & Observer editorial board if he would support the upcoming election’s results

Republican candidate Bo Hines in North Carolina’s 13th Congressional District won’t say if he’ll support the upcoming election results, according to a new editorial by the Raleigh News & Observer.

According to the Raleigh News & Observer editorial board:

“Representatives for Bo Hines, another Trump-backed election denier running in North Carolina’s competitive 13th Congressional District, also did not respond when asked if Hines would support the upcoming election’s results.

“Hines recently scrubbed Trump’s name and endorsement from his website and hung up on a New York Times reporter who asked whether he planned to appear at Trump’s rally in Wilmington this weekend.”

Hines has long been on the record promoting false conspiracy theories about the 2020 election results in North Carolina, saying that he believes the presidential election was stolen.

“Bo Hines refusing to say if he’ll accept the results of the November election is completely disqualifying,” said DCCC spokesperson Monica Robinson. “He’ll happily throw out your vote if he doesn’t agree with the outcome of an election, and he’s far too dangerous to go to Congress and be handed a position of power. Democracy is on the line this November.”
