North Carolina Finalizes Legislative Races, GOP Loses Veto-Proof Control

Credited from: APNEWS

  • The North Carolina General Assembly elections were finalized with official certificates issued to winners of three closely contested legislative races.
  • This finalization confirms that **Republicans have lost their veto-proof control** in the legislature, particularly after outgoing Rep. Frank Sossamon lost to **Democrat Bryan Cohn**.
  • As a result, Republicans will now hold **71 of 120 House seats**, just shy of the necessary three-fifths majority needed for veto-proof control.
  • With **Democrats gaining** seats, incoming **Governor Josh Stein's** veto authority may more effectively block GOP initiatives during the next legislative session.
  • The remaining disputes regarding election results were dismissed, leading to a significant turn in the power dynamics within the state legislature.
