Cheri Beasley is giving Democrats renewed hope in North Carolina's high-stakes Senate race.
a Democrat, is trying to win a US Senate race in North Carolina, a state that in 2020 went forwith either of the major parties. The most politically “dangerous” scenario, a national Democratic operative says, is if her Republican opponent successfully turns the Senate race into a “Republican-or-Democrat battle.” So Beasley keeps her tone sunny and her outreach wide.
Prod Beasley just a bit, though, and a refreshing grit comes to the surface. Will North Carolina elect a Black woman to statewide office? “The state already has!” Beasley responds quickly. “The state has elected me twice!” The first time, in 2008, she knocked off a Republican incumbent appellate court judge to become the first Black woman to win statewide office without first being appointed.
