State Senator Ted Alexander represents North Carolina's 44th District. After volunteering in his community for years, he saw public office as his calling. He enjoys making a tangible difference in the lives of his constituents. 

Alexander's top legislative priorities include passing anti-human trafficking legislation, working on budget proposals, and keeping up with the remaining bills before the legislative session closes. 

If Alexander could have lunch with one historical figure, it would be Ronald Reagan. He would take an out-of-town visitor to the Shelby Cafe for livermush, a local delicacy.
