North Carolina House Speaker Tim Moore is one of three Republicans expected to flip U.S. House seats after new district maps were drawn for the 2024 elections. Moore won the 14th District’s Republican nomination Tuesday. The Republican nomination in the 6th and 13th Districts appeared to be heading for a May 14 runoff. The Republican-controlled General Assembly approved districts skewing rightward, prompting three Democrats to forgo reelection bids. The results of past elections indicate the new districts will likely elect at least 10 Republicans. Currently, the state’s congressional delegation has seven Republicans and seven Democrats.
