Progressive Durham County Commissioner Nida Allam conceded Wednesday after a razor-thin Democratic primary challenge to U.S. Rep. Valerie Foushee in North Carolina's 4th District. Foushee led 49.2% to Allam's 48.2% with 99% of expected votes tallied; Allam credited her campaign with boosting under-40 early turnout 55% and overall turnout nearly 40%, citing nearly $2 million in progressive support.
