We now have seven Democrats representing North Carolina in the US Congress, seven of 14, so we improved our numbers there and helped blunt Democratic losses in other states (like in Florida, where -- yikes! -- there is officially no intelligent life surviving).
Don Davis |
CD2 -- Democrat Deborah Ross easily held on to her seat.
CD3 -- Republican incumbent Greg Murphy easily buried his Democratic opponent.
CD4 -- Democrat Valerie Foushee easily won David Price's open seat.
CD5 -- Republican Virginia Foxx ... don't get me started.
CD6 -- Democratic incumbent Kathy Manning won reelection with 53.75% of the vote.
CD7 -- Republican incumbent David Rouzer easily put away Democrat Charles Graham, who had one of the best introductory candidate videos, produced by Frank Eaton while Graham was planning to run against Dan Bishop in CD9, but new gerrymandering did him in there.
CD8 -- Republican Dan Bishop, a male Virginia Foxx, is now elected to be a jerk to infinity and beyond.
CD9 -- Republican incumbent Richard Hudson easily won reelection.
CD10 -- Republican incumbent Patrick McHenry took 72% of the vote.
CD11 -- Republican Chuck Edwards is now permanently (probably) a D.C. fixture, beating Jasmine Beach-Ferara. It wasn't even close.
Wiley Nickel |
CD13 -- For Ted Budd's old House seat, Democrat Wiley Nickel beat the other Madison Cawthorn clone, Bo Hines, by over 7,000 votes. Hines and his patron Donald Trump were counting on that red wave, which didn't arrive for him. Maybe Hines can now go seek an actual job.
CD14 -- For the brand new 14th, state Sen. Jeff Jackson easily rolled over his Republican challenger. Can't help thinking he would maybe have won that Senate seat this year.
