The National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) released the following statement on the North Carolina Senate race following Democrat Wiley Nickel’s announcement he was entering the race:
“Wiley Nickel is a far-left radical who wants illegal immigrants voting in our elections, drug dealers free on the streets, and parents kept from having a voice in their children’s education,” said NRSC spokesperson Joanna Rodriguez. “He’s made a fortune offering defense services to criminals who’ve committed heinous crimes, including selling child pornography and domestic assault. He’s so out-of-touch he chose to retire instead of facing voters in a tough election year, and he will be rejected by North Carolina voters in 2026.”
