North Carolina GOP lawmakers have proposed new boundary lines for congressional districts starting in 2024 that could threaten the reelection of several current Democrat members of the House of Representatives.

Candidate filings for the 2024 election are expected to begin in early December. North Carolina’s 14-seat congressional delegation is currently evenly split between the left and right, consisting of seven Democrats and seven Republicans.
