Madison Cawthorn Still Favored to Win Despite Scandals

The gambling website BetOnline had Madison Cawthorn still favored to be re-elected for his House of Representatives seat in North Carolina.  He will first need to get past a primary challenge on Tuesday.

Cawthorn is coming in at -140 odds to be re-elected.  The NO pays EVEN odds.

Recent polling from the GOPAC Election Fund found that Cawthorn’s support dropped among primary voters over the previous month, from 49% in March to 38% in April. His main opponent, State Sen. Chuck Edwards, was coming in at 21%.  Some polls are showing a much tighter race.

Cawthorn has been embroiled in various scandals recently and has fallen out of favor with the Republican establishment.

On March 3, he was cited with driving while his license was revoked, a misdemeanor.

On April 26, Cawthorn was caught trying to board a plane with a loaded Staccato 9mm handgun.

Last week, a video went viral showing Cawthorn engaged in a playful naked humping of a friend’s head while producing strange hoops and hollers. Photos of Cawthorn wearing women's lingerie have also appeared on the Net.

On Wednesday, Sen. Thom Tillis called for an investigation into whether Cawthorn engaged in insider trading, after a story from the Washington Examiner found that Cawthorn could be implicated for insider trading.

Cawthorn, 26, was raised in a conservative Baptist community in Henderson County, North Carolina, and has staked his political persona on arch-traditional Christian principles and the insistence of the importance of a kind of hypermasculinity, writes Michael Cruse of Politico.

The incumbent has accused the “establishment” of launching a “coordinated drip campaign” against him and saying this week, “They’re going to drop an attack article every one or two days just to try and kill us with a death by 1,000 cuts.”
