💨 Abstract

North Carolina Senator Thom Tillis' retirement announcement has triggered a competitive race for his Senate seat. Republicans, including potential candidates like Michael Whatley and Lara Trump, are vying for the position, with a Trump endorsement seen as crucial. Democrats, led by potential candidate Roy Cooper, see an opportunity to flip the seat, despite not having won a Senate race in the state since 2008.
