Jeffrey Elmore has added his name to the growing list of candidates for lieutenant governor in 2024.<\/p>\n<p>Elmore, a Wilkes County Republican who has guided public education legislation and spending during his time in the General Assembly, announced his bid at a recent county GOP meeting, news outlets reported.<\/p>\n<p>Elmore reiterated his plans last week in a video in which he said a more formal campaign kickoff would occur in the next couple of weeks.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/us\/despite-youngkin-winning-education-reform-va-teachers-union-bypass-crt-ban\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong><u>DESPITE YOUNGKIN WINNING ON EDUCATION REFORM, VA TEACHERS UNION FINDS WAY TO BYPASS CRT BAN<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>A teacher in the Wilkes County Schools, Elmore was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/politics\/state-and-local\/elections\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">first elected<\/a> to the House in 2012 after serving on the North Wilkesboro town board. Elmore has often been the point person on issues addressing K-12 teacher pay.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I\u2019m very excited. I feel with my background in education, I can help in this role moving forward,&#8221; Elmore told The Wilkes Record.<\/p>\n<p>Current GOP Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson announced last month he was running for governor next year.<\/p>\n<p>Other announced candidates for lieutenant governor include Democrats like Sen.

Jim Hunt \u2014 and ex-Spring Lake Mayor Chris Rey. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/politics\/senate\/republicans\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Republicans include<\/a> Hal Weatherman, a former aide to previous Lt. Gov. Dan Forest. Primaries will be held in March.<\/p>\n<p>The lieutenant governor, who runs separately from the governor on the ballot, presides over state Senate debate, voting only during ties. The lieutenant governor sits on a few governing boards, including the State Board of Education and the State Board of Community Colleges.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/north-carolina-republican-rep-jeffrey-elmore-run-lieutenant-governor\">Source &#8211; https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/north-carolina-republican-rep-jeffrey-elmore-run-lieutenant-governor <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>North Carolina state Rep.
