Republican Mark Harris will not run in a special U.S. House election in North Carolina brought about by allegations of election fraud against an operative his campaign employed last year, he announced Tuesday.
The pastor cited his health in declining to run for Congress again in North Carolina's 9th District. Harris said he has a "necessary surgery" scheduled in March.
Democrat Dan McCready, who trailed Harris in November's general election before the state board of elections ordered a new race, has already declared his candidacy. The North Carolina State Board of Elections has not set a new election date yet.
