Meet North Carolina District 4

North Carolina’s 4th Congressional District includes all of Durham County and Orange County as well as northern Chatham County and western Wake County. The district includes more rural communities like Hillsborough, college towns like Chapel Hill, fast-growing cityscapes like Durham, and small towns growing into renewed metropolitan communities like Pittsboro and Holly Springs. Our district is full of innovators, educators, and families working together to build a brighter future. If you aren’t sure whether or not you live in the new 4th District, you can check by finding your house on the map on this page!

Frequently Asked Questions

You can check your voter registration by looking up your name on the North Carolina Board of Elections website.

The easiest way to update your voter registration or register for the first time is to use the NC DMV’s online portal, available here. However, you can also register by mailing a voter registration application to your county’s Board of Elections or in-person during early voting. Learn more about registering to vote here.

North Carolina uses a semi-open primary system. That means that the Democratic primary election is open to both registered Democrats and unaffiliated voters. If you are a registered Democrat, you will receive a Democratic ballot when you go to vote, but if you are registered unaffiliated, you will be asked to choose between one of the recognized political parties in North Carolina. You can only vote on one party’s ballot, so if you’re an unaffiliated voter and want to cast your vote for Nida, make sure to request the Democratic primary ballot.

Primary election day is March 3, 2026! If you know that you won’t be able to make it to the polls on that date, or if you just want to get voting out of the way, North Carolina offers two ways of voting absentee. You can vote absentee-by-mail by requesting a mail-in ballot beginning in March, or you can vote early in-person at any early voting site in your county between February 12-28, 2026. You can learn more about voting absentee-by-mail here and voting early in-person here.

The North Carolina State Board of Elections has a non-partisan resources page available here. They’ll be updating it with more information as we get closer to Election Day.
