2026 Election — North Carolina’s 1st Congressional District

This is Side Two
This page is the arena for this district, this cycle. It is where competition lives. Debate, live conference, and candidate ads belong here later.
It is not a campaign. It does not crown a winner. It does not tell you who to vote for.
For what the job is, use the office twin.
The map for this cycle
North Carolina’s congressional lines for 2026 are Session Law 2025-95 (SB 249), enacted 22 October 2025. The State Board of Elections says that map is the one for 2026. The 2025 act mainly realigned the 1st and the 3rd. Do not take a district number from a 2024 sample ballot. Confirm on NCSBE and voter lookup.
Wake, Guilford, and Mecklenburg are split. Look up the address.
When
- Election Day: Tuesday, November 3, 2026
- The primary and second-primary / runoff windows are set by North Carolina law and can move. Confirm on the North Carolina State Board of Elections.
All 435 voting House seats are on the 2026 ballot, including this one.
Who is on the ballot
Do not take names from a news comment or a text thread.
- Official candidate list / sample ballot — North Carolina State Board of Elections
- District lookup — vt.ncsbe.gov
- Current Member of record (not the same thing as the 2026 nominee) — House.gov finder
If a site and the official sample ballot disagree, the sample ballot wins.
What you are hiring
You are hiring a United States Representative for the 2025 1st: the northeast and the Banks / Crystal Coast counties moved in from the old 3rd. Look up the address. Read the office page.
How to stay out of rumor
- Registration and party affiliation for the primary: official North Carolina tools
- Mail and early voting rules: official sites only
- “You can vote by text” and other shortcuts: treat as false until a .gov page says otherwise
This briefing will not invent voting procedures.
Debate and live (next state of this door)
This URL is the room. Discourse and live conference for this district land here when CIC says so — not on the textbook, not on SuperPack, not on WordPress.
