North Carolina's 9th congressional district

North Carolina's 9th congressional district is a congressional district in south-central North Carolina. The entire counties of Alamance, Hoke, Moore, and Randolph counties as well as portions of Chatham, Cumberland, and Guilford counties including most of Fayetteville, and a very small portion of Greensboro.

Republicans have held this district since 1963. Republican Robert Pittenger had represented the district since January 2013. In February 2016 a U.S. District Court overturned the existing boundaries at the time because of politically directed gerrymandering that suppressed minority representation. In 2018, Pittenger was defeated by challenger Mark Harris in the Republican primary. The latter faced Democrat Dan McCready in the general election.

Harris was initially called as the winner by several hundred votes, but the result was not certified, pending a statewide investigation into allegations of absentee ballot fraud. On February 21, the bipartisan State Election Board unanimously voted to call for a new election for the 9th district, because of ballot fraud by Republican operatives.

A special election was held September 10, 2019, with Democrat Dan McCready running against Republican Dan Bishop, a state senator who won the Republican primary. Bishop won the 2019 special election to the U.S. House of Representatives with 50.7% of the vote to McCready's 48.7%.

Candidate filing began February 24, 2022 after the North Carolina Supreme Court approved a new map that was only used for the 2022 United States House of Representatives elections, which had changed the 9th district boundaries to include Chatham, Hoke, Lee, Moore, Randolph and Scotland Counties and parts of Cumberland, Harnett and Richmond Counties.

The ninth district is currently represented by Richard Hudson.
