The state's U.S. House lines had been drawn last year by a panel of trial judges after earlier attempts by the General Assembly to draw the state's 14 congressional districts were found by state courts to include unlawful partisan gerrymandering. Jackson said the refigured 8th Congressional District where he now resides is “completely unwinnable under any circumstances.”
Jackson and Bishop have both said they would serve out the remainders of their U.S. House terms. During his nearly 10 months in Congress, Jackson has been known for his regular videos on social media explaining the latest news in Congress.and endorsed eventual nominee Cheri Beasley. Beasley lost the election to Republican Ted Budd.
“The job is about standing between you and them, which means I’m going to take some hits,” Jackson said in the video, excerpts of which show him sparring in a boxing ring. “But it also means fighting back.”
