Rep.-Elect Wiley Nickel On What His Win Says To 'MAGA Warriors' - The Last Word - MSNBC
Abortion was a top issue helping North Carolina voters choose Democrat Wiley Nickel over Trump-backed Bo Hines, who said he wanted a community review process for victims of rape and incest. Wiley Nickel tells MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell that moment showed “what a far-right extremist we were up against,” adding that in swing districts like his, “if you stand 100% pro-Trump … you’re going to lose.” - Aired on 11/09/2022.

Then you're partially responsible for his win! I previously worked for my congressman here in NY-20 - he won his first election, but lost the second. 
And I was taking to the husband of a friend earlier tonight, complaining about the abysmal Republican candidates who are still competitive (Walker) and he said he worked on Raphael Warnock's previous campaign!
