2022 Elections
Choose a chamber below:

Elections for the North Carolina State Senate took place in 2022. The general election was on November 8, 2022. A primary was held on May 17, 2022. A primary runoff was scheduled to be held on July 5, 2022. The filing deadline was March 4, 2022.

The North Carolina State Senate was one of 88 state legislative chambers with elections in 2022. There are 99 chambers throughout the country. At the time of the 2022 elections, Republicans held a majority in more chambers than Democrats. There was a Republican majority in 62 chambers and a Democratic majority in 36 chambers. In the Alaska House, there was a power-sharing agreement between the parties as part of a coalition.

Heading into the election, Ballotpedia identified 11 battleground races in the North Carolina State Senate 2022 elections, six of which were Democratic-held districts while the other five were Republican-held districts. Based on analysis of these districts' electoral histories, these races had the potential to be more competitive than other races and could possibly have led to shifts in a chamber's partisan balance.

All 50 seats were up for election in 2022. As of the 2022 election, the Republican Party controlled 28 seats and the Democratic Party controlled 22 seats.

At the time of the 2022 election, North Carolina had had divided government since Democrats took control of the governorship in 2016, breaking the state’s Republican trifecta. Democrats needed to win control of the state senate and the state house in order to win a trifecta. Republicans needed to maintain control of one or both chambers to maintain the state's divided government. This was one of 28 state legislative chambers Ballotpedia identified as a battleground chamber in 2022. Click here for more on why this chamber was identified as a battleground.

2022 battleground chamber
See also: State legislative battleground chambers, 2022

The North Carolina State Senate was among 28 state legislative chambers Ballotpedia identified as battleground chambers for the 2022 cycle.

What was at stake?

  • The Democratic Party needed to gain four or more seats to take control of the chamber in 2022. The Republican Party needed to lose two or fewer seats to maintain control.
  • This race had the potential to change North Carolina's trifecta status. Democrats needed to win control of the state senate and the state house in order to win a trifecta. Republicans needed to maintain control of one or both chambers to maintain the state's divided government. Because the governorship was not up for election in 2022, Republicans did not have a chance to gain a trifecta.

Why was it a battleground?

  • Seats needed to flip: The Democratic Party needed to flip four seats (8% of seats up) in order to win control of the chamber.
  • 2020 battleground chamber: The North Carolina State Senate was a battleground chamber in 2020. That year, the Democratic Party gained one seat from the Republican Party. Read more about the 2020 elections here.

Post-filing deadline analysis

The following analysis covers all state legislative districts up for election in North Carolina in 2022. Information below was calculated on March 21, 2022, and may differ from information shown in the table above due to candidate replacements and withdrawals after that time.

The number of uncontested state legislative districts in North Carolina grew from 14 in 2020 to 51 in 2022. Uncontested districts lack major party competition, meaning candidates from only one of the two major parties filed to run.

Democrats were effectively guaranteed to win 10 districts, and Republicans were guaranteed 41 at the time of the filing deadline. Candidates from both major parties filed to run in the remaining 119 districts.

In 2022, the increase in uncontested districts was driven by a drop in Democratic challengers. In 2020, Democrats ran in 166 of the state’s 170 districts, and Republicans ran in 160. In 2022, Republicans once again filed to contest 160 districts while Democrats filed to run in 129.

This decrease brought the number of Republicans running without Democratic opponents back to a level similar to the 2014 and 2016 election cycles.

In 2018, the state saw its highest level of major party competition when two major party candidates contested 168 of the 170 districts. This increased level of competition remained in the 2020 cycle before dropping in 2022.

Additional takeaways from the 2022 filing deadline include:

  • Overall, 386 major party candidates filed to run in 2022: 167 Democrats and 219 Republicans. This equals 2.3 candidates per district.
  • The number of open districts, those without an incumbent seeking re-election, increased from 27 in 2020 to 29 in 2022. This was lower than the 30 open districts in 2018, but a larger figure than earlier election cycles.
  • Of the 340 possible major party primaries, 73 (22%) were contested, a larger number than every election cycle since 2014 except for 2018, which had 75 contested primaries.
  • Of the 145 incumbents seeking re-election, 33 (23%) filed alongside primary challengers. Again, this was second only to the 2018 election cycle, when 35 incumbents faced contested primaries.
  • Due to redistricting, four incumbents—all Republicans—were drawn into new districts where they will run against other Republican incumbents in contested primaries. This guaranteed the defeats of at least four Republican incumbents.

Open seats

The table below shows the number and percentage of open seats in the North Carolina State Senate from 2010 to 2022.[3]

Open Seats in North Carolina State Senate elections: 2010 - 2022
Year Total seats Open seats Seats with incumbents running for re-election
2022 50 10 (20 percent) 40 (80 percent)
2020 50 11 (22 percent) 39 (78 percent)
2018 50 5 (10 percent) 45 (90 percent)
2016 50 7 (14 percent) 43 (86 percent)
2014 50 5 (10 percent) 45 (90 percent)
2012 50 11 (22 percent) 39 (78 percent)
2010 50 8 (16 percent) 42 (84 percent)

Incumbents running in new districts

When an incumbent files to run for re-election in the same chamber but a new district, it leaves his or her original seat open. This may happen for a variety of reasons ranging from redistricting to a change in residences. This may result in instances where multiple incumbents face each other in contested primaries or general elections if the incumbent in the new district also seeks re-election. In 2022, 14 incumbents filed to run for re-election in new districts different from those they represented before the election. Those incumbents were:

Redistricting following the 2020 census

On October 25, 2023, the North Carolina General Assembly adopted new legislative district boundaries.[12] The legislation adopting the new Senate districts passed the State Senate by a vote of 28-17 and the State House by a vote of 63-40.[13] The legislation adopting the new House districts passed the State Senate by a vote of 27-17 and the State House by a vote of 62-44.[14] All four votes were strictly along party lines with all votes in favor by Republicans and all votes against by Democrats.[15][16][17][18] WUNC's Rusty Jacobs wrote that Catawba College Prof. Michael "Bitzer said Republicans have drawn maps that have a strong chance of preserving their veto-proof super majorities in both chambers of the state legislature. Bitzer noted that constitutional provisions, like requiring legislators to keep counties whole when drawing state legislative districts, make it more difficult for lawmakers to gerrymander these maps more aggressively."[19]

Footnotes

  1. ↑ Steinburg resigned after losing the primary.
  2. ↑ Ballotpedia defines an incumbent as retiring if the incumbent did not file for office or filed for office but withdrew, was disqualified, or otherwise left a race in a manner other than losing the primary, primary runoff, or convention. If an incumbent runs as a write-in candidate, Ballotpedia does not consider them to be retiring. If an incumbent runs in the same chamber for a different seat, Ballotpedia does not consider them to be retiring.
  3. ↑ Ballotpedia defines a seat as open if the incumbent did not file to run for re-election or filed but withdrew and did not appear on any ballot for his or her seat. If the incumbent withdrew from or did not participate in the primary but later chose to seek re-election to his or her seat as a third party or independent candidate, the seat would not be counted as open. If the incumbent retired or ran for a different seat in the same chamber, his or her original seat would be counted as open unless another incumbent from the same chamber filed to run for that seat, in which case it would not be counted as open due to the presence of an incumbent.
