Former North Carolina Gov. Pat McCrory said he tested positive for COVID-19 on Wednesday, a day after his loss in the U.S. Senate Republican primary to Donald Trump-backed Ted Budd.
“Thanks for so many kind notes from friends and supporters since Tuesday,” the former Charlotte mayor said on Twitter just before 1 p.m. Thursday. “Have not been as responsive because I got diagnosed with Covid yesterday. It’s no fun!”
“I love u all,” McCrory added. “Appreciate all your prayers for Ann and me. God bless.”
