Meet Democrat Chuck Hubbard, who leads Virginia Foxx after NC election

A longtime journalist from northwestern North Carolina is on the verge of unseating one of the state’s most powerful Republican members of Congress. Chuck Hubbard, 64, leads Rep. Virginia Foxx by 99 votes in the 5th Congressional District, according to unofficial returns — close enough to trigger a possible recount. Here are key takeaways: Hubbard is a lifelong resident of the 5th District whose grandfather founded the Wilkes Journal-Patriot, where Hubbard started working at age 8 inserting sections and helping with the mailing. He attends North Wilkesboro Presbyterian Church, serves on the boards of Wilkes Recovery Revolution, the Wilkes Child Abuse Prevention Team and the Wilkes Prison Ministry, and is married to Shari, a former state trooper. The couple has three daughters and two grandchildren. With all precincts reporting, Hubbard led Foxx 48.7% to 48.66% in the 5th Congressional District. Foxx, 83, a Republican from Banner Elk, currently chairs the powerful House Committee on Rules and has served in Congress since 2004 after a decade in the state Senate. Hubbard ran unsuccessfully against her in 2022 and 2024 before this third try. On a candidate questionnaire, Hubbard identified rising costs and inflation as the top issue, calling for an end

Who owns the Sigma Nu house at NC State, and what will become of it?

Just one day after search warrants revealed details of evidence and allegations of hazing at NC State University’s Sigma Nu fraternity — which included cocaine use, hospitalizations, pledges being forced to eat vomit, and other disturbing details — the chapter was closed by the national fraternity. The fraternity cannot return to NC State for at least four years. At that point, a “return agreement” could be considered, according to the university . For now, a criminal investigation of the hazing and drug use at the fraternity is still underway . The brothers must move out by Tuesday afternoon. But of course, the imposing house once home to the university’s oldest fraternity still stands. You can even take a virtual 3D tour of its interior . But who owns the house, and what will become of it now that Sigma Nu is no longer operational at NC State? The house is owned by an alumni house corporation, according to Christopher Brenton, director of communications at the national Sigma Nu organization. Alumni house corporations are separate from both the local chapter and the national fraternity. They are operated by alumni from the university’s chapter, and act as landlords or property managers.

Rep. Virginia Foxx, trailing in NC election, wants observers for ballot counting

Republican Rep. Virginia Foxx said Friday she’s requested “nonpartisan election observers” to be present for vote counting across North Carolina’s 5th District as she trails in the election. Foxx, 83, has served 11 terms representing the district, which today encompasses rural parts the northwestern section of the state as well as most of Greensboro. Her Democratic opponent, Chuck Hubbard, is currently winning by just 99 votes, according to preliminary results. But county election boards still have to review provisional ballots — those with questions about the voters’ eligibility — and count some qualifying military and overseas ballots arriving before the deadline of 5 p.m. on Nov. 12 . On the ballots with outstanding questions, voters have until Nov. 10 to “cure” the ballot by fixing the problem or answering the question. Then the results will have to be certified by election officials. Following that, if the race remains within a 1% margin, as it currently is, a recount can be requested. What Foxx said In a Facebook on Friday, Foxx said, “Nonpartisan election observers under the guidance of the Committee on House Administration will be present across the 5th District as the count continues, and will serve as important, watchful
