Incumbent Republican Rep. Renee Ellmers has been defeated by another Republican incumbent, Rep. George Holding, in the 2nd Congressional District, the AP projects.
Holding was ahead 52 percent to 24 percent with about two-thirds of precincts reporting. Holding represented the old 13th District, which covered the Raleigh area before moving west to the Triad.
The 2nd District race featured the only two Congressional incumbents running against each other in an American primary this year. It garnered more national attention when Donald Trump endorsed Ellmers.

Good Riddance RINO!!
ANOTHER CANTORIZATION OF A CHEAP LABOR EXPRESS STOOGE !!
WOO !! HOO !!
LYIN’ RYAN, YOU’RE NEXT !
But But..
Trump had supported her, mainly, I think, because she was the very first Congressperson to endorse him. He is loyal.
But all in all, this is a good thing.
I defer to the judgment of Laz, but I think I’d hit it on the way out.
Agree Cotton!
Good riddance to Mrs Elmer Fudd.
Good Bye and Good Riddance to another GOPe stooge.
America can do so much better.. and it better.. or.. we’ll slip into mediocrity like EUrope.. Loyalty has a price.. He can afford it. ;-)
No, they would rather be destroyed as a Party.
As Donald Trump says continually, “we are winning, winning every day from here on out!” But he’s wrong when he laughingly says: “We are going to win so much you’re going to get tired of it!” Not me! With the exception of Ronald Reagan’s 8 years, we’ve been loosing since the end of WWII ( which is when I got old enough to know the difference between winning and loosing!
Outstanding news! Now if we could Cantorize Ryan himself ...
Ellmers was/is the epitome of the TEA wave disappointments. She rode in on the wave, and instantly became a RINO, drunk on the tainted Potomac partakings.
Isn’t she (very) closely associated with Whip McCarthy? Oh, well :D
Glad Walter Jones survived.
This North Carolina conservative is absolutely thrilled that turncoat is out.
This loss isn’t on Trump. He did one lousy robocall for her.
And he didn’t mention her anywhere else.
From what I’ve read, the Holding feller is no beaut either, maybe even worse. But it is what it is.
“Trump had supported her, mainly, I think, because she was the very first Congressperson to endorse him. He is loyal.
But all in all, this is a good thing.”
IMHO you are correct.
