claims last night including mastriano in pennsylvania and even a little bit of ted budd in north carolina. now, as far as ted budd is concerned, my gop sources in north carolina say that ted budd is an okay candidate, they don t necessarily credit trump for winning. mccrory is so disliked in north carolina among the republican establishment and the far right, he wasn t mccorey and that s what put ted budd over the finish line. i think ted budd told cnn that he does believe joe biden is the president but doesn t believe he won the election. i m not sure how you get from point b to point a. back to this pennsylvania race and figuring out who lb running against fetterman, you saw some interesting comments in what dave mccormick and mehmet oz were saying on stage last night. let s listen to that. we knew it was working. we through our message, to take back this country.
that s where the heart of our community belongs. ingrid: because teachers like me know. carol: quality public schools. kiyoko: make a better california. and we have a key race alert for you right now in the tar heel state of north carolina on the republican side, for the senate republican primary race. congressman ted budd is in the lead. he is 3,700 votes ahead, mccrory 35.6%, walker pulling up in third place with 5.8%, we caution you, this is early, only with 3% of the vote in but as of now, ted budd more votes came
solidify his race. we re not out of the woods. again, this is the nascar state, we are not going to let off the gas. but i would also say our eye is on move. his biggest challenger coming from his biggest challenge, rather, coming from former north carolina governor pat mccrory who is hoping his record of cutting taxes and creating jobs can help him gain some ground. we need some new blood in washington right now, not the same old-same old that ted budd has been promoting for the past six years. reporter: you know, eric, this may be a tough race for both mccrory and budd. we spoke to a political science expert who says that these candidates align together in terms of policies, so race really may come could be to that trump endorsement. we ll see on tuesday. back to you with, eric. eric: yeah, we ll see. charles, thanks. arthel: well, as parents across
principles and nor have i. they know i m a physical, social conservative and they know i know how to win and that s making them nervous. charles: biggest challenge comes in the form of north carolina former north carolina governor pat mccrory, the former governor is hope to go make up ground and win voters in cutting taxes and job creation, accomplishments he said budd can t offer to the people of north carolina. ted budd has nothing in 6 years of congress, no one knew him. he had no record of accomplishment. charles: mccrory has taken out jabs trying to tie budd to liberals and the same the other way, but when it comes to policy, political science professor say it is two are virtually identical so it could come down to the trump endorsement. i think that that s going to be the critical factor, how loyal is this republican primary
