Kevin Hayes, the Constitution Party candidate for North Carolina’s sixth congressional district this year, has won one of the district’s six counties with a majority of votes cast, according to unofficial results from the North Carolina State Board of Elections.
Hayes, who ran against Republican Addison McDowell in a two-way race, received 104,017 votes, capturing 30.84% of the total votes cast. His performance is particularly notable because he secured a narrow majority in one of the district’s six counties. In Guilford County, which saw the second-highest number of votes cast in the district this election cycle, Hayes earned 33,877 votes, amounting to 50.66% of the total.
In addition to his notable performance in Guilford County, Hayes was the strongest-performing Constitution Party candidate running at any level of government this year. Among the 28 candidates listed by the Constitution Party as running in this election cycle, he outperformed all others in both total votes and highest vote percentage. This group included several candidates who also ran in two-way races.

Doesn’t sound like he won the seat. Just a majority in one of six counties.
To: Angelino97
In other words, he lost bigly to Republican Addison McDowell.

Yes. By simply getting anti-Republican votes since no Dem ran.
Winning a county was unusual but still meaningless.
