N.C. Rep. Valerie Foushee holds narrow lead over challenger Nida Allam; recount likely

Rep. Valerie Foushee held a narrow lead over challenger Nida Allam in North Carolina’s 4th Congressional District, and the race was likely headed to a recount, according to official results.

Initial tabulations left the contest too close to call, election officials said. The margin between the candidates was small enough that a recount appeared probable.

Foushee is the Democratic incumbent in the district. Allam challenged her for the seat.

Final results must be certified by election authorities before the outcome is official, officials said.
