Description | State Sen. David Rouzer of Johnston County said he plans to seek the GOP nomination for the 7th District U.S. House seat next year.
Rouzer, 39, is a former agriculture adviser to Republican senators Jesse Helms and Elizabeth Dole. He also served in the administration of George W. Bush.
Rouzer said he decided to make the run, after the GOP legislature came out with a newly configured 7th District that swings northward to include Johnston County. He will likely face a competitive primary with Ilario Pantano of Wilmington, who was the GOP nominee for the seat last year and has already mounted a campaign for next year. |
