In North Carolina, the statewide general election, also known as the “midterm,” is an important election. We must vote for all our candidates – from local races such as Sheriff, County Commissioners, and School Board; for important state races for our Rowan/Stanly NC Senator and for our NC Supreme Court and Appeals Court Judges; to the decisive U.S. Senate and U.S. House races.
