The North Carolina Council of State elections of 2024 were held on November 5, 2024, to select the ten officers of the North Carolina Council of State. These elections coincided with the presidential election, elections to the House of Representatives, elections to the North Carolina General Assembly and top state courts.

The November general election had mixed results for both parties. The Republican Party picked up the office of State Auditor while maintaining control of the offices of State Treasurer, Agriculture Commissioner, Labor Commissioner, and Insurance Commissioner. In contrast, the Democrats held the offices of Attorney General, Governor, and Secretary of State, while also flipping the offices of Lieutenant Governor and Superintendent of Public Instruction.[2]
