North Carolinians, with 3 U.S. House seats flipped red, have myriad fits | North Carolina
SUMMARY: North Carolina Republicans flipped three congressional seats from Democrats, solidifying their majority in the U.S. House. The state’s delegation now includes 10 Republicans and four Democrats, with newcomers Addison McDowell, Rev. Mark Harris, Pat Harrigan, Brad Knott, and Tim Moore joining returning Republicans. Political experts anticipate that the representatives will largely adhere to party lines, particularly on key issues. Each newcomer brings diverse backgrounds and priorities, focusing on areas like health care, military policy, and immigration.

SUMMARY: U.S. Rep. Richard Hudson has been re-elected as chairman of the National Republican Congressional Committee, making him the first North Carolinian to hold this position.

Moderate policies push Davis across the finish line | North Carolina
SUMMARY: In North Carolina’s only competitive U.S. House race, Democratic incumbent Don Davis narrowly defeated Republican Laurie Buckhout, winning 49% of the vote to Buckhout’s 48%. The victory, by just 5,839 votes among over 364,000 cast, reflects a significant shift in the district, where Republicans haven’t won since 1882. Davis’ moderate policies likely bolstered his support, making him popular even among some Republicans. Buckhout focused on conservative issues like border security and Trump-era policies. Experts predict Davis’ moderate stance will secure his position in future elections, especially given the history of incumbents in the district.
