David Rouzer Wins Midterm Election Race In North Carolina

Republican David Rouzer defeated Democrat Jonathan Barfield Jr. and Libertarian Wesley Casteen in the 7th District's race to replace retiring Rep. Mike McIntyre (D-N.C.).

Rouzer lost the closest Congressional race in the country to McIntyre in 2012. This year, with McIntyre's retirement, the seat was considered one of the Republican Party's top pickup opportunities.

The Republican is a former member of the North Carolina state Senate as well as a former policy advisor to former Republican Sens. Jesse Helms and Elizabeth Dole.
