Previously, the state had 13 districts from the first election following the 1810 United States Census until the reapportionment following the 1840 United States Census.From 2003 to 2013 the district included most of northern Wake County, all of Person and Caswell counties as well as parts of Rockingham, Granville, Guilford, and Alamance counties. However, reapportionment after the 2010 census shifted the district more to the south and east. As a result, it lost its share of Alamance, Caswell, Guilford, Person, and Rockingham counties. In place of those five counties, portions of Durham, Edgecombe, Franklin, Nash, Vance, Wayne, and Wilson counties were added. More of Wake County and less of Granville County were also included. The new district is also 14 points more Republican than its predecessor. As a result, Congressman Brad Miller, who represented the district from its creation in 2003, announced he would not seek re-election to office in 2012. The district is now represented by Republican George Holding."@en }
