North Dakota Republicans endorsed Alex Balazs for U.S. House after candidate Rick Becker urged delegates to spoil ballots and Julie Fedorchak withdrew from the race. Balazs, a military veteran and first-time candidate from Cando, and Fedorchak, a Public Service Commissioner, were the only two candidates seeking the NDGOP endorsement. All three Republican candidates plan to compete in the June 11 primary.
