Six candidates are running in the Republican primary for North Carolina’s 6th Congressional District on March 5, 2024. Four lead in endorsements and local media attention: Christian Castelli (R), Bo Hines (R), Addison McDowell (R), and Mark Walker (R).
Castelli is a businessman and veteran of the U.S. Army. Castelli says he is running because “the world is on fire and Congress is broken. We must put America first and send a Green Beret to take that hill.” Castelli says he will prioritize border security, eliminating inflation, and defending freedom.
Hines is a local businessman and former college football player. Hines says he is running because “Our nation under Joe Biden faces a crisis of leadership, and many in the next generation of Americans – my generation – have abandoned the values that made this country great. I cannot sit on the sidelines and watch the nation I love decline any further.” Hines says he will be the most effective ally to President Trump (R) of any candidate on the ballot.
