On November 27, 2018, the State Board of Elections declined to certify the election result in this congressional district, while certifying all the others, pending investigation of unspecified "potential wrongdoing".[88] An investigation was opened focusing on McCrae Dowless, a political operative who was hired by the Harris campaign for get-out-the-vote work, and allegations of irregularities involving the collection of absentee ballots.[89][90] On December 28, 2018, incoming House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer stated House Democrats' official position of declining to seat Harris on January 3.[91] A new election was called.
