For years, Michael Wray has been the only adult in the room while political opportunists and out-of-touch extremists try to hijack our district. 

Some candidates talk a big game on social media, chasing clicks and stirring outrage — but only one person has consistently delivered real, measurable results for the people who actually live here: Michael Wray.

Look around. 

Our district is facing serious problems — crumbling infrastructure, rising costs, economic uncertainty, and communities that are tired of being used as props by loud, performative candidates who have never accomplished a thing. 

Meanwhile, Wray has brought home funding, solved problems quietly and effectively, and put this district ahead of political games.

The truth is simple:

While others are busy campaigning, Michael Wray is busy working.

This primary isn’t a choice between two visions. 

It’s a choice between:

Experience vs. inexperience

Results vs. rhetoric

A proven leader vs. political chaos

Wray has protected jobs, supported law enforcement, strengthened local schools, and secured resources rural communities rarely get. 

He doesn’t grandstand; he doesn’t chase headlines; he doesn’t answer to extremists. He answers to us.

His opponent? 

Lots of noise. Lots of slogans. Zero track record. This district cannot afford an experiment, a puppet for outside interests, or a candidate who thinks posting online is the same as governing. That’s how communities get hurt — and that’s exactly what Wray has spent his career preventing.

A Message to Republicans Who Want Stability — Not Chaos

Let’s be blunt: If you’re a registered Republican, you cannot vote for Michael Wray in the Democratic primary, even if you know he’s the only one with the competence and moderation to protect this district. The extremists want you boxed out. Don’t let them win.

Fix it now:

Go to the NC DMV website

Change your registration to UNAFFILIATED

Do it before the cutoff

Then vote for Wray — the candidate who actually works for you.

A two-minute online form is the difference between electing a proven, steady leader … or handing power to someone who has no idea what they’re doing.

This district deserves better than noise, chaos, and amateur hour. 

We need someone who has been in the room, built the relationships, and delivered results year after year. 

Michael Wray is that person — and the only person capable of keeping this district stable, safe, and moving forward.

If you’re tired of political stunts, tired of outsiders sticking their nose in our region, tired of people pretending to lead — then vote for the one man with the record to prove he can do the job.

Michael Wray: Proven. Tested. And the only candidate who isn’t playing games with your future.
