The calendar says 2023, but politically, it might as well be 2024. The presidential race is loping toward its first turn. Three Republican candidates are in town this weekend for the state Republican Party's convention. President Joe Biden was here Friday. North Carolina won't just be big in next year's presidential elections, it may be huge for control of Congress, because Republicans here will redraw the congressional map this year, tilting those races, potentially adding enough Republican-leaning districts to keep or expand their party's control of the U.S. House. WRAL State Government reporter Travis Fain goes on the record with the chairman of the state Republican party to examine how the GOP plans to win local and national elections in 2024.
