Democratic NC candidate previously dropped by party narrowly leads incumbent

A Democratic candidate who lost her party’s support over controversial social media posts held a narrow lead over the Republican incumbent for a seat in North Carolina’s House of Representatives. Shelly Headen, who previously shared social media posts advocating an attack on the United States and saying Trump supporters belong in concentration camps, held a slight advantage over incumbent John Blust to represent District 62 in Guilford County after all 24 precincts had reported. The difference between the two candidates is narrow enough for a recount. Blust has served one term as a state senator and another 10 as a state representative. He campaigned on lowering property taxes and energy costs and increasing employment. Headen manages a retail garage door business alongside her husband. She advocated for investing in public schools and expanding affordable housing and healthcare. Headen was the target of many attack mailers that depicted her as a supervillain, a talking doll and a criminal using artificial intelligence. She previously called the mailers “violating” and said that she was a “victim of fake, generated AI.” Blust previously told The News & Observer that Headen was a candidate that the Democratic Party recruited but didn’t vet, and that some
