Democrats are outraising Republicans in competitive NC legislative districts

Last year’s redistricting left only a handful of competitive legislative districts in North Carolina as Republicans in the General Assembly moved to solidify their veto-proof majorities.

Two of the competitive Senate districts are in Wake County, where Democratic candidates are so far winning the money race.

Democrat Terence Everitt decided to relinquish his House seat and run in Senate District 18, which tilts Republican.

Republicans gave Everitt’s House district a radical remake after he asked prosecutors to investigate House Speaker Tim Moore for possible corruption. Moore had been sued for alienation of affection by Scott Lassiter, the estranged husband of a state employee with whom Moore had an affair.
