In the 2024 House race for NC-10, Pat Harrigan (R) won with 57.5% of the vote, defeating Ralph R. Scott Jr. (D) who received 38.2%. 2 additional candidates split the remaining vote. Pat Harrigan's 19.3-point advantage over the runner-up confirmed a comfortable win.

This was an open-seat race with no incumbent running — Patrick McHenry (R) previously held the seat. Open seats typically attract stronger candidates and heavier spending from both parties. The 2024 presidential election drove higher voter turnout, which can help or hurt down-ballot candidates depending on the top of the ticket.
