2020 Election Live Results

President

15 Electoral Votes

North Carolina has voted Republican in all but two elections since 1968. However, it has becoming increasingly competitive since Barack Obama's narrow 2008 win. Donald Trump won by about 4% in 2016.

U.S. Senate

Incumbent Sen. Thom Tillis (R) is seeking a 2nd term. The Democratic nominee is former State Sen. Cal Cunningham. Most recent polling for this race has been well within the margin of error, with most forecasters seeing it as a true toss-up. 2022: Sen. Richard Burr (R, 3rd term). Burr has indicated he will not seek another term.

Governor

Incumbent Gov. Roy Cooper (D) is seeking a 2nd term. The Republican nominee is Lt. Gov. Dan Forest.

U.S. House

13 Congressional Districts: 9 Republicans | 3 Democrats | 1 Vacancy

Redistricting has created a map more favorable for Democrats, with NC-2 and NC-6 likely to flip; both incumbent Republicans are retiring. NC-11 has been vacant since March, when Republican Mark Meadows became White House Chief of Staff. Redistricting added Asheville, making this conservative district slightly more friendly for Democrats. Combined with some stumbles by GOP nominee Madison Cawthorn, it will be a race to watch, although Cawthorn retains the edge.

Another competitive race to watch is District 8, where incumbent Republican Richard Hudson is seeking a 5th term. Adjacent NC-9, represented by freshman Republican Dan Bishop (R), is a long-shot for Democrats.
