Governor

Current Gov. Roy Cooper has reached the end of his tenure as he has served the maximum of two terms in the office. His hand-picked successor Attorney General Josh Stein is now projected to win the race against Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson, according to ABC News.

US House

The balance of power in the US House of Representatives could swing depending on how several elections turn out across the country.

Right now, Republicans hold a slight majority with 220 seats compared to the 212 that Democrats hold. There are also three vacant seats.

All 14 of North Carolina's US House Districts will be on the ballot. The current makeup of representatives in the House from the Tar Heel state are split evenly with seven Republicans and seven Democrats. However, new maps drawn by Republican leaders have put multiple incumbent Democrats in Republican-leaning districts.

Lt. Governor

With Mark Robinson running for governor, his current office is up for grabs.

Democrat Rachel Hunt, the daughter of North Carolina's longest-serving governor Jim Hunt, said she's running "to get us back on track, fight for our basic freedoms, create safer communities, and make our education system the best it can be."

Her Republican opponent is Hal Weatherman. He's a longtime GOP political strategist who graduated from Wake Forest University. He described himself as a "principled limited government conservative."

Attorney General

With Josh Stein running for governor, his current office is up for grabs.

Republican Dan Bishop is a Congressman representing the state's 8th district. He styled himself as a "conservative who tells the truth," and is known on the House floor for his blunt and straightforward discussion of issues.

Democrat Jeff Jackson is a Congressman representing the 14th district. He formerly served as a state senator and prosecutor from Chapel Hill. He said he wants to be a "non-partisan, independent voice for the people of North Carolina."

Superintendent of Public Instruction

This contentious race has gained a lot of attention across the state.

It pits longtime educator and former Guilford County Schools Superintendent Mo Green against homeschool teacher Michele Morrow.

Morrow is vowing to change the education system because she says there's too much political influence in schools. Green plans to rely on his experience to work to raise graduation rates across the state.

Counties are colored red or blue when the % expected vote reporting reaches a set threshold. This threshold varies by state and is based on patterns of past vote reporting and expectations about how the vote will report this year.
