Democrat Jamie Ager wins election to U.S. House in North Carolina’s 11th Congressional District
Democrat Jamie Ager secured a victory on Tuesday to represent North Carolina's 11th Congressional District in the U.S. House of Representatives, defeating Republican Jennifer Balkcom. Despite a history of strong Republican voting in the western North Carolina district, Ager emerged victorious. Ager is a businessman who sells pasture-raised meats, with his family having a long-standing history in farming in the area.
Balkcom, a state legislator, secured the Republican nomination following incumbent Rep. Chuck Edwards' suspension of his re-election campaign in August. The Associated Press officially declared Ager the winner at 8:53 p.m. EST.
