Congresswoman Loses Seat After Telling Rival, “You’re eating a little bit too much pork barbecue. Whoo!”
Story out of Dunn North, Carolina:
After Republican Congresswoman Renee Ellmers got out of her car to vote Tuesday, she greeted a woman by name and then told the woman she had “gained some weight.”
Ellmers continued walking by and said, “You’re eating a little bit too much pork barbecue. Whoo!”
The woman, Maggie Sandrock, is a former chair of the Harnett County Republican Party. Sandrock said she worked on Ellmers’ previous two runs for Congress, but is supporting Republican Congressman George Holding this time.
The two members of Congress are running against each other for their party’s nomination in North Carolina’s 2nd Congressional district after district lines were re-drawn. Cont. (Video)
Update: North Carolina’s Republican U.S. Rep. George Holding has won the only congressional primary between incumbents this year, defeating Rep. Renee Ellmers.
