Tune in to WIZS radio Tuesday evening for a local perspective on tomorrow’s mid-term election results.
Brandon Boyd joins John C. Rose live on the air through the evening, commenting on state and national races, overall voter turnout and trends – all while keeping a keen eye on local races that affect Vance County and the WIZS listening area.
Candidates in some local races are running unopposed, but several other races will be decided following Tuesday’s vote.
Incumbent Curtis Brame and challenger Patrick Bailey are vying for the job of Vance County Sheriff. There’s also a close race for sheriff in Granville County, which has three challengers vying for the job.
In the race for N.C. House District 32, incumbent Terry Garrison is being challenged by political newcomer Frank Sossamon.
Mark Speed and Lisa Barnes are running for the N.C. Senate to represent District 11, which includes Henderson and Vance County.
But there are other state races that have significance locally, including district court judgeships, court of appeals races and battles for seats on the state Supreme Court.
Carolyn Thompson and Julee Flood face each other in a race for district court seat 8, and Don Davis and Sandy Smith are each hopeful to take the U.S. House District 1 election.
Boyd said he hopes others enjoy hearing and seeing tomorrow’s election results as much as he does.
“It’s going to be so much fun watching this thing play out from coast to coast,” he said.
As polls close in the East and then later through the evening on the West Coast, Boyd said he is interested in watching national races here in North Carolina with the Cheri Beasley-TeddBudd matchup for U.S. Senate – but also named Pennsylvania, Georgia, Nevada and Arizona as key states to watch.
