North Carolina State Board of Elections denies Senate leader Phil Bergers request for a manual review of ballots in his tight Republican primary against Rockingham County Sheriff Sam Page. Page leads by twenty-three votes, and Berger wanted to review undervotes and overvotes. The board cited state law, which doesnt allow for recounting undervotes. Bergers request was criticized as an attempt to ignore election rules. A machine recount is ongoing, and Berger can seek a hand recount in a random sample of precincts if significant changes are found.
