Following the 2010 Census results, North Carolina did not gain or lose any congressional seats, maintaining its 13 representatives. Under the new map, the 7th District now leans Republican. In addition, current 7th District Rep. Mike McIntyre's home has been redrawn into the 8th District. Regardless, McIntyre intends to seek re-election in the new 7th.^[1]
