CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Former North Carolina governor Pat McCrory again stated on Monday that he won't seek the District 9 congressional seat. 

Sunday night, McCrory teased that he would share his "personal status" on the 9th District Congressional election during his radio show Monday morning. During the radio show, he said he would not seek the District 9 seat, but has not ruled out running for Senate or another bid for governor. 

The State Board of Elections recently announced there will be a new election following a hearing over alleged absentee ballot fraud.

McCrory lost his re-election bid to current governor Roy Cooper in 2016. McCrory is also the former mayor of Charlotte.

The State Board of Elections unanimously voted on a new election for the 9th District after it determined absentee ballots were likely collected illegally.

Even Republican candidate, Mark Harris, who had a lead over his Democratic challenger, Dan McCready, said there should be a new election. A criminal investigation over the November election results is ongoing.

Meanwhile, McCready wasted no time announcing his intentions to run, but Harris has yet to make a formal announcement about whether he plans to run again.

Republicans Tommy Tucker, Kenny Smith and Dan Berry are also considering running
