North Carolina's 8th congressional district is a congressional district that comprises a large portion of the southern Piedmont area of North Carolina from Concord to Spring Lake, including China Grove, Albemarle, Troy, and Raeford. The district includes all of Cabarrus County, Montgomery County, Hoke County, and Stanly County, as well as portions of Rowan County and Cumberland County.
The district is currently represented by Dan Bishop, a member of the Republican Party.
Candidate filing began February 24, 2022, after the North Carolina Supreme Court approved a new map which changed the 8th district boundaries to include Anson, Davidson, Montgomery, Rowan, Stanly and Union Counties and parts of Cabarrus and Richmond counties.[3]
