National Dems to target GOP congressional leader in NC

The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee is targeting North Carolina’s 9th Congressional District, held by Republican Rep. Richard Hudson, as part of efforts to challenge vulnerable GOP incumbents. Republicans dismiss the move as a Democratic strategy to divert resources, while Democrats highlight Hudson’s record on health care and working families. Hudson, who previously chaired the National Republican Congressional Committee, defeated Democrat Nigel William Bristow by 18 percent in 2024.
