The2022 United States Senate election in North Carolina was held on November 8, 2022, to elect a member of theUnited States Senate to represent theState of North Carolina . Republican CongressmanTed Budd won his first term in office, defeating Democratic nomineeCheri Beasley . Primary elections were scheduled for March 8, 2022,[ 1] North Carolina Supreme Court and rescheduled for May 17.
Incumbent three-termRepublican U.S. SenatorRichard Burr announced in 2016 that he would not seek reelection in 2022.[ 2] North Carolina Supreme Court Cheri Beasley [ 3] U.S. Representative Ted Budd won theDemocratic andRepublican primaries , respectively.[ 4] [ 5] [ 6] [ 7] [ 8] [ 9] [ 10]
Despite ultimately winning the election, Budd's performance marked the lowest share of the vote received by any Republican running for North Carolina'sClass III Senate seat since1998 .
Former GovernorPat McCrory fromCharlotte finished second in the primary. Former U.S. RepresentativeMark Walker fromGreensboro finished third in the primary. With Burr's retirement, this primary was expected to be very competitive.[ 11] Mark Walker was the first major candidate to announce his candidacy, on December 1, 2020.[ 12] 2020 becausehis district was made much more favorable to the Democratic Party after redistricting. Former presidentDonald Trump 's daughter-in-lawLara Trump was widely speculated as a possible candidate for this seat.[ 11] Lindsey Graham [ 13] Kellyanne Conway ,[ 11] [ 14] Pat McCrory announced his candidacy.[ 15] [ 4]
Opinion polls taken during April 2021 showed McCrory with a wide lead over Walker and Budd. McCrory was aided by a high degree of name recognition because of his several statewide campaigns.[ 16]
On June 5, 2021, theNorth Carolina Republican Party held a convention inGreenville . At the convention, former president Trump announced that he was endorsing Budd for the U.S. Senate seat.[ 17] 2008 and2016 gubernatorial elections.[ 18] [ 18] [ 5]
Meanwhile, North Carolina redrew its congressional maps, making Walker's house seat more favorable to Republicans than it had been before 2020. After that, Trump met with Walker and promised to endorse him if he left the Senate race to instead run for his old House seat, newly numbered as the 7th district.[ 19] [ 20]
The first primary debate was held on February 26 in Raleigh. It was sponsored by theJohn Locke Foundation , aconservative think tank based in North Carolina. McCrory, Walker and Eastman participated. Budd was invited, but did not attend, leaving an empty podium.[ 21] [ 22] WRAL-TV on April 14 and featured McCrory and Walker, with Budd once again declining to attend.[ 23] Spectrum News 1 . McCrory, Walker, and Eastman participated.[ 24] Nexstar Media Group , was held on April 26 and aired on television stations across North Carolina, includingWJZY ,WNCN ,WGHP , andWNCT-TV .[ 25] [ 26]
Budd won the primary overwhelmingly with over 58% of the vote. McCrory finished second with almost 25%, and Walker third with 9%. Budd won a plurality in every county in the state except forMecklenburg , which McCrory won by under 100 votes. After the results were released, McCrory declared his political career over. He did not endorse Budd for the general election.[ 27]
