Judicial elections in North Carolina are non-partisan, and we have included a judicial candidate's party affiliation, only when it was provided to us by the candidate. It is important to note that N.C. Supreme Court and N.C. Court of Appeals races are statewide and all voters in the state will have the opportunity to vote in these elections. N.C. Superior Court judges are elected by district. Superior Court District 15B has two available seats, so voters in this district will be allowed to vote for two candidates.
