Based on our knowledge of Cawthorn’s character and our experience with him as a classmate at PHC, we have determined that we must speak out and resolutely oppose his bid to represent #NC11 (2/15)
Cawthorn’s time at PHC was marked by gross misconduct towards our female peers, public misrepresentation of his past, disorderly conduct that was against the school’s student honor code, and self-admitted academic failings. (3/15) https://www.citizen-times.com/story/news/local/2020/08/12/madison-cawthorns-claim-naval-academy-creates-false-impression/3350634001/">https://www.citizen-times.com/story/new...
During his brief time at the college, Cawthorn established a reputation for predatory behavior. His modus operandi was to invite unsuspecting women on “joy rides” in his white Dodge Challenger. (4/15)
Cawthorn would take young women to secluded areas, lock the doors, and proceed to make unwanted sexual advances. It became a regular warning in the female dorms not to be caught alone with Madison Cawthorn. (5/15)
Additionally, he referred to female students as “bitches” and “sluts”, both in private amongst his friends and often publicly. He also called our female peers these derogatory names when they refused to go for a ride in his car. (6/15)
In 2017, Cawthorn spoke at one of our campus-wide chapel services. He said that he was “a top football recruit for the Naval Academy” and that after his accident he told doctors that he “would be at the Naval Academy by Christmas.” (7/15) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l5QcuuZPbGA&t=841s">https://www.youtube.com/watch...
Cawthorn has placed this narrative at the center of his campaign, namely that his tragic accident “derailed his plans” to attend the Naval Academy. (8/15) https://avlwatchdog.org/candidates-claim-creates-false-impression/">https://avlwatchdog.org/candidate...
However, a sworn deposition from his lawsuit against his friend’s auto insurance company shows that Cawthorn knew before the accident that his nomination to the Naval Academy had been rejected. (9/15) https://www.scribd.com/document/471486060/2017-Madison-Cawthorn-deposition">https://www.scribd.com/document/...
Cawthorn recounted how “my best friend, my brother” managed to extricate himself from the wreckage of the accident and deserted Cawthorn to perish alone in “a fiery tomb.” (10/15) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l5QcuuZPbGA&t=427s">https://www.youtube.com/watch...
But Cawthorn’s father said “he wasn’t scared, didn’t run from the fire, he pulled Cawthorn from the car cause he was unconscious.” To build a compelling narrative, Cawthorn is willing to slander the character of a friend who saved his life. (11/15) ">https://youtu.be/bZIi_f8Ee...
Cawthorn groped and sexually harassed female students. One of these cases was recently confirmed by WORLD Magazine, a conservative evangelical publication based in Asheville, NC.

We remember what Madison Cawthorn did to our community. We remember how he took advantage of our community’s trust. We remember how deeply he hurt our community. (13/15)
North Carolina deserves better; North Carolina demands better. So on November 3rd, reject Madison Cawthorn at the ballot box. (14/15)
