Fifth District

In the U.S. Fifth District, incumbent Representative Virginia Foxx Democratic challenger Josh Brannon. It was the second time the two candidates faced off against one another. Foxx handily defeated Brannon in 2012. Foxx has served the Fifth District since winning the 2004 election.

Sixth District

Incumbent Representative Mark Walker defeated Democrat Pete Glidewell. Walker was first elected in 2014, taking over the seat long held by the late Howard Coble.

13th District

Republican Ted Budd won the U.S. 13th Congressional seat, defeating Democrat Bruce Davis. This was Budd's first run for public office. 

The 13th District had been located in eastern North Carolina before a federal court ordered the state's congressional lines to be redrawn. It now is in the heart of the Piedmont and includes parts of Greensboro, High Point Thomasville and Lexington.

N.C. Supreme Court

Mike Morgan won a seat on the State Supreme Court Tuesday, defeating incumbent Justice Bob Edmunds. The state legislature passed a law last year that would have limited the race to an up-or-down choice by voters as to whether Edmunds should be retained on the bench. That law was overturned by a federal court, keeping the more traditional race format for this election.

Forsyth County Bond Measures

Forsyth County voters overwhelmingly approved three bond measures on Tuesday's ballot. The bonds authorize $350 million for schools, $65 million for community colleges and $15 million for parks and recreational facilities.

Guilford County Bond Measures

Guilford County voters approved more than $125 million in bond measures Tuesday. The money will be used to support housing, transportation, parks and community and economic development projects.
