North Carolina's 10th congressional district
North Carolina's 10th congressional district

North Carolina's 10th congressional district is a congressional district in central and western North Carolina. It currently includes all of Catawba, Iredell, Lincoln, and Yadkin counties, and most of Forsyth County including much of the city of Winston-Salem. The district has a Cook Partisan Voting Index rating of R+9. Republicans have won the district continuously since 1969, and the last Democrat to win this district was Basil Whitener who represented it from 1963 to 1969. Republican Pat Harrigan has represented the district since 2025. The 10th district was part of the controversial statewide redistricting by the Republican-led state legislature in 2011. The district's northwest border was redrawn to include most of heavily Democratic Asheville, long the heart of the 11th district. At the same time, some heavily Republican areas in the 10th were shifted to the 11th. While this made the 10th approximately seven points more Democratic, it was not nearly enough to overcome the heavy Republican tilt in the western Charlotte suburbs. On February 23, 2022, the North Carolina Supreme Court had approved a new map to only be used for the 2024 United States House of Representatives elections which changed the 10th district boundaries to include Alexander, Burke, northwest Gaston County, eastern Rutherford County and a small section of southeastern Caldwell County. On October 25, 2023 the North Carolina General Assembly passed a new congressional map for the 2024 United States House of Representatives elections to include Yadkin county, and most of Forsyth County including much of Winston-Salem, shifting the normally heavily Republican district's Cook Partisan Voting Index from R+22 to R+9. The district has historically been the most Republican district in the state and normally the most exurban in character.
