Filing Dates for the North Carolina Special Election in the 3rd Congressional District

AGENCY:

Federal Election Commission.

ACTION:

SUMMARY:

North Carolina has scheduled special elections to fill the U.S. House of Representatives seat in the 3rd Congressional District held by the late Representative Walter B. Jones Jr.

DATES:

There are three possible special elections, but only two may be necessary.

• Special Primary Election: April 30, 2019.

• Possible Special Runoff Election: July 9, 2019. In the event that the top vote-getter does not achieve over 30% of the votes cast in his/her party's Special Primary Election, the top two vote-getters of that party will participate in a Special Runoff Election.

• Special General Election: September 10, 2019. However, if a Special Runoff Election is not necessary, the Special General will instead be held on July 9, 2019.
