Republicans have a 30-20 majority the state Senate and a 69-47 majority in the state House with four vacancies. The last time Democrats controlled either chamber of the Legislature was in 2010, when Democrats controlled both chambers.

North Carolina's attorney general and secretary of state are Democrats. This makes North Carolina one of 20 states with a Democratic triplex.
