More from the article:

Politico first reported on the case against Bennett, a Haywood County real estate agent who was a Republican candidate in the race for the 11th Congressional District seat held by then-Rep. Mark Meadows. He was vacating the seat to become President Donald Trump's chief of staff. Bennett was a friend of Meadows' wife and endorsed by Meadows before the March 2020 primary. She advanced to a primary runoff but lost to Madison Cawthorn despite also receiving Trump's endorsement.

Cawthorn won the 11th District general election in November 2020 and served one term. Then-state Sen. Chuck Edwards defeated Cawthorn in last May's primary and joined Congress earlier this month.


Poor dear. Endorsement by tfg, the death knell of her political career. Being beaten by Cawthorn, too. What a legacy.
