North Carolina's 10th congressional district is a congressional district in central and western North Carolina. It currently includes all of Cleveland, Gaston, Lincoln, Polk, and Rutherford counties, and part of Catawba, Iredell. With a Cook Partisan Voting Index rating of R+22, it is the most Republican district in North Carolina.[2]
Republicans have won the district continuously since 1969. Republican Patrick McHenry has represented the district since 2005. The 10th district was part of the controversial statewide redistricting by the Republican-led state legislature in 2011.[3] The district's northwest border was redrawn to include most of heavily Democratic Asheville, long the heart of the 11th district. At the same time, some heavily Republican areas in the 10th were shifted to the 11th. While this made the 10th approximately seven points more Democratic, it was not nearly enough to overcome the heavy Republican tilt in the western Charlotte suburbs.
On February 23, 2022, the North Carolina Supreme Court approved a new map which changed the 10th district boundaries to include Alexander, Burke, Catawba, Iredell and Lincoln Counties, northwest Gaston County, eastern Rutherford County and a small section of southeastern Caldwell County.[4] The current district is mostly exurban in character and is the most Republican district in North Carolina.
