The latest headlines, weather, and stories, right here on Durham News today. In the Republican primary for a key North Carolina Synod seed, long-time leader Phil Berger trails Challenger Sam Page by just 23 votes, based on official county certified results. Rocking him and Guilford counties finalized their tallies on Friday, prompting Berger to formally request a recount through the State Board of. Elections. Berger's campaign expects at least the machine recount to double-check the close outcome, while Page's team remains a bead about holding the lead. Voters in these counties deliver a narrow verdict favoring the Rockingham County Sheriff, potentially ending Berger's long run as a top Republican, power broker. The recount must wrap up by March 25th when State officials certify the final results and move forward to the general election. The Daily News Now is grateful to our sponsor for today's episode.
