The husband of a public relations strategist who admitted to an affair with U.S. Senate candidate Cal Cunningham called Wednesday for the North Carolina Democrat to drop out of his race against Republican incumbent Sen. Thom Tillis, according to a report. Cunningham, a 47-year-old married father of two, apologized for his conduct but has so far ignored calls to drop out of the race. The first step in repairing those relationships is taking complete responsibility, which I do," Cunningham said in the statement. “A few months back, I displayed a lapse in judgment by engaging in a relationship with Cal Cunningham during a period of marital separation,” Guzman Todd said. Tillis, who has served in the Senate since 2015, said Tuesday that his opponent “owes the people of North Carolina a full explanation.”
