2024 North Carolina Senate election

The 2024 North Carolina Senate election was held on November 5, 2024, to elect all 50 members to North Carolina's Senate. The election coincided with elections for other offices, including for the U.S. President, U.S. House of Representatives, Council of State, and state house.[1] The primary election was held on March 5, 2024. Ahead of the election, districts were redrawn and passed the General Assembly in Senate Bill 758.[2] Republicans had no change in seats, leaving their supermajority to 30 out of 50 seats. Despite winning a majority of the votes cast, the Democratic Party only won 20 of the 50 seats up for election, although this was likely skewed by the number of uncontested seats.
