North Carolina's 14th congressional district is a congressional district in theUnited States House of Representatives created after the2020 United States census.[3][4] The newly created district was first drawn by a three-judge panel in theWake County Superior Court as part of a remedial map that was only used for the2022 United States House of Representatives elections.[5] It currently includes allBurke,Cleveland,Gaston, andRutherford Counties, along with portions ofMecklenburg, andPolk Counties, including portions ofCharlotte. In 2022 the district included the southern half ofMecklenburg County and three-fourths ofGaston County.
In 2022, the district originally leanedDemocratic. Even though Gaston County is heavilyRepublican, the district's share of heavily Democratic Mecklenburg County had twice the population of the Gaston County portion. On October 25, 2023 theNorth Carolina General Assembly created and passed a new congressional map that carved away most of the district's share of Mecklenburg County and pushed it into heavily Republican territory in the Foothills. This shifted the district'sCook Partisan Voting Index from D+6 to R+8.[6][7][8]
The 14th district was first represented byDemocratJeff Jackson and is now currently represented byRepublicanTim Moore.
For the119th and successive Congresses (based on the districts drawn following a 2023 legislative session), the district contains all or portions of the following counties and communities.[9][10][11]
