James Whalen is bringing a new generation of leadership to our courts.

Here and across the country, politicians are bending and breaking rules to take more power for themselves at our expense. We deserve judges who will boldly and unapologetically defend our rights and the rule of law, but our current court majorities have allowed abuses of power to go unchecked. 

James Whalen has protected our rights in Josh Stein’s Department of Justice and private practice. Most recently, he helped ensure every vote counted in Justice Allison Riggs’ Supreme Court race and stopped a dangerous attempt to overturn a free and fair election. Now, he's running for the North Carolina Court of Appeals to stop the abuses of power, uphold our rights, and build a brighter future for our state.
