2024 United States House of Representatives elections in North Carolina

The 2024 United States House of Representatives elections in North Carolina were held on November 5, 2024, to elect the fourteen U.S. representatives from the State of North Carolina, one from all fourteen of the state's congressional districts. The elections coincided with the 2024 U.S. presidential election, as well as other elections to the House of Representatives, elections to the United States Senate, and various state and local elections. The primary elections took place on March 5, 2024.

Background

In 2021, the North Carolina Supreme Court ruled against a congressional map proposed by the state legislature deeming it as a partisan gerrymander and drew its own congressional map that was used for the 2022 election cycle. However, after the 2022 elections, Republicans gained a majority on the State Supreme Court, and ruled in April 2023 that claims of partisan gerrymandering are non-justiciable. The General Assembly passed a new map placing three incumbent Democrats in Republican-leaning districts.

District 1

The new 1st district includes all of Bertie, Camden, Chowan, Currituck, Edgecombe, Gates, Greene, Halifax, Hertford, Lenoir, Martin, Nash, Northampton, Pasquotank, Perquimans, Tyrrell, Vance, Warren, Wayne, Washington, and Wilson counties, as well as a small portion of eastern Granville County. The incumbent was Democrat Don Davis, who was previously elected with 52.4% of the vote in 2022.

Due to redistricting, the district has two incumbents, Republican Virginia Foxx, who was re-elected with 63.2% of the vote in 2022, and Democrat Kathy Manning, who was re-elected with 54.5% of the vote in 2022. However, on December 7, 2023, Manning announced she would retire after two terms in office, choosing to retire instead of running for re-election due to being placed into a much more Republican-leaning district than before.

District 6

The new 6th district includes all of Davidson, Davie, and Rowan counties, as well as portions of northwestern Cabarrus County, western Forsyth County, and southwestern Guilford County. Prior to redistricting, the incumbent was Democrat Kathy Manning; however, Manning was drawn out of the 6th district and into the 5th, leaving the district with no incumbent, as Manning instead chose to retire. Addison McDowell was the Republican nominee for this district, after he received the most votes in the March primary and former congressman Mark Walker withdrew from the race, forgoing a runoff election.

As of 2025, Constitution Party candidate for this district Kevin Hayes is the best performing US House candidate in the party's history, in terms of both percentage and raw vote total.
