The district is in the SW corner of the state. It HAD been gerrymandered when they yanked Asheville out and put it with the 10th district, but it was put back into the 11th before MadCaw’s election. MadCaw won his election 55 - 42, so it wasn’t a blowout. The Trumpers came out of the woodwork in 2020, but a lot of them probably won’t vote without Trump on the ballot.
