Beyle added that he thinks one of the main reasons a plethora of candidates has come forth is because of the lack of an incumbent running. “We haven’t had an open seat in 30 years,” he said. “Senate seats don’t come open that often.” The State <8 National Editor can be reached at stntdesk@unc. edu.
