It's too early for quality polling as none of the candidates are household names. I live(d) in this district, but I think I have been gerrymandered out by a few blocks or precincts that vote (hopelessly) Democratic. The 2022 congressional race in this district was a travesty. Richard Hudson was gerrymandered into this district though he didn't live here, and barely campaigned, presuming correctly that voters would act simply as automatons and remain loyal to party, though they didn't know who they were voting for. Hudson's office produces an inane newspaper column about how he's "working for you," that the Chatham News and Record publishes as news or informed opinion rather than the propaganda that it is. The CN&R was last year purchased by North State Media, and now generally publishes national GOP hack columns rather than independent analysis from local people who reflect local interests. Can Etchison break through the partisan hack media to get her message out? Here's a video she posted, so maybe. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=00LM1__JNzk
