Democrats Target Hudson in NC-9 | Fayetteville News

Democrats are targeting North Carolina’s 9th District, aiming to unseat GOP Rep. Richard Hudson — a key Republican fundraiser and House leadership figure — in a pivotal battle for House control. Despite winning by 18% last time and carrying Trump’s support, Hudson faces a strong challenge from former Army major and state senator Richard Ojeda, who’s raised over $2 million and frames Hudson as too close to Washington’s establishment. While DCCC is optimistic based on national special election trends, Republicans counter that Democrats are trying to buy the race rather than earn it. With Election Day just weeks away, this tight contest could be a bellwether for the broader House battle. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
