Last week, we held conversations with the two candidates for one of the most underrated races on the ballot in November: the North Carolina Supreme Court.

This week, we introduce you to the two candidates for the other seat.

The races are partisan seats in North Carolina, and Democrats hold a 4-3 advantage. Republicans have put a focus on winning these seats to regain control. This week we introduce you to Democrat and incumbent Sam Ervin and Republican Trey Allen.
