A Democratic member of Congress is running for North Carolina attorney general next year now that a new redistricting map approved by Republican legislators this week would situate him in a heavily GOP district
Democratic U.S. Rep. Jeff Jackson of North Carolina announced a 2024 bid for state attorney general on Thursday, one day after the Republican-controlled legislature approved a new congressional map for the state that would now situate him in a heavily GOP district. Jackson, a former local prosecutor, ex-state senator, Afghan war veteran and National Guard soldier, had in 2022 won an open U.S. House seat in a district in and around Charlotte that favored a Democrat.
Jackson said the refigured 8th Congressional District where he now resides is “completely unwinnable under any circumstances.” State Democrats said Thursday that litigation challenging the congressional and state legislative maps finalized this week would come soon. But Jackson told supporters last week when Republicans unveiled the boundaries that the timing and result of any court case were unclear. Republicans have called the latest maps that they drew fair and legal.
