Race background

Before announcing that he would not run for re-election, incumbent Mike McIntyre (D) was one of seven early targets listed by the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) in the 2014 congressional elections.[10] The seven targets aligned perfectly with the seven most Republican districts held by Democrats, according to FairVote's partisanship index. McIntyre's district ranked as the most Republican (38 percent Democratic).[11]

McIntyre was a member of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee's Frontline Program. The program was designed to help protect vulnerable Democratic incumbents during the 2014 election cycle.[12]

Republican David Rouzer -- who narrowly lost to McIntyre in 2012 -- ran again for election to the seat.[13] The National Republican Congressional Committee added David Rouzer to their "On the Radar" list in November 2013. According to the NRCC, candidates that made this list received "...the tools they need to run successful, winning campaigns against their Democratic opponents."[14] In March 2014, Rouzer was included on the NRCC's "Young Guns" list.[15]

Media

In the following campaign ad, Rouzer blamed President Obama for putting the United States "on a path to financial ruin," saying that he wanted to "take our country back."[16]

2012

See also: North Carolina's 7th Congressional District elections, 2012

Rouzer did not run for re-election to the North Carolina State Senate. Instead, he ran in the 2012 election for the U.S. House to represent North Carolina's 7th District. Rouzer won the nomination on the Republican ticket. The signature filing deadline for candidates wishing to run was February 29, 2012. Rouzer defeated Ilario Pantano and Randolph Wilson Crow in the Republican primary on May 8, 2012.[18] Rouzer lost to incumbent Mike McIntyre (D) in a race that was too close to call for more than one week after the general election on November 6, 2012.[19] On November 20, 2012, Rouzer requested a recount in his race with McIntyre, which was the "closest Congressional race in the country.[20]

The Washington Post listed the House of Representatives elections in North Carolina in 2012 as one of the states that could have determined whether Democrats retook the House or Republicans held their majority in 2013.[21] North Carolina was rated eighth on the list.[21][22]

2016

The following issues were listed on Rouzer's campaign website. For a full list of campaign themes, click here.

  • Coastal Communities: Our coastal communities are vital to our state’s economy and a treasure for all North Carolinians. In Congress, I will be a tireless advocate for those issues critical to our coastal communities.
  • Foreign Policy & Military: President Ronald Reagan had it right — Peace through Strength. We must maintain a cutting edge military and bolster our intelligence agencies if America is going to remain the dominant force for freedom in this world.
  • Economy & Jobs: My entire career has been focused on championing the needs of small businesses, entrepreneurs and our farm families. In the State Senate, I chaired the committees responsible for cutting wasteful spending and removing burdensome regulations from our business owners and farm families while leading the fight against implementation of Obamacare and its mandates during Senate floor debate.
  • National Debt & Budget: It is not what you make that gets you in trouble, it is what you spend. I am a firm believer that less government is best. When you boil it all down, the government is a major part of the reason why we have an energy crisis, a struggling education system, and so many regulations in health care that competition and transparency are significantly impeded.
  • Taxes: We cannot tax our way back to prosperity. I fought for lower taxes in Raleigh and I will fight for lower taxes in Washington.
