Joyce Krawiec of Kernersville, R-Forsyth, was sworn in Friday to represent N.C. Senate District 31 in the General Assembly. She replaces Sen. Peter Brunstetter, R-Forsyth, who resigned in November to accept a job with Novant Health.

Lt. Gov. Dan Forest administered the oath of office to Krawiec in the old Senate chamber in the State Capitol in Raleigh. Republicans in Forsyth and Yadkin counties nominated Krawiec last week to fill the vacancy. Her term ends Dec. 31, 2014.
