Representative Norman Sanderson Will Seek State Senate Seat

With the recent announcement that State Senator Jean Preston will not seek another term, her legislative colleague Norman Sanderson announced today that he will seek election to the District 2 State Senate seat. "Senator Preston has set the bar high when it comes to hard work, ethical standards and sound fiscal accountability," Sanderson said. "I assure the people of the 2nd District that I will uphold that legacy as I strive to be their next State Senator."


Sanderson has served Craven and Pamlico Counties in House District 3 and sees the move as a logical progression. "It has been my honor to serve the people of Craven and Pamlico Counties, and I look forward to expanding that service to the people of Carteret."

In the State House, Sanderson has distinguished himself as a "Common Sense Conservative", drawing on his business background and strong faith to guide him through one of the most difficult legislative sessions in memory. Sanderson plans to serve out his term in the House, honoring his commitment to his constituents.

Sanderson has already compiled an impressive list of local leaders who have thrown their support behind his candidacy. In addition to the formal endorsements, members of the area Republican Party leadership (prohibited from endorsing prior to filing) have expressed strong support for the Sanderson Senate run. "I am extremely pleased with the outpouring of support that has been directed toward my run for the State Senate," declared Sanderson.
