Buncombe County Democratic Men's Club Breakfast
The road to breaking the Republican supermajority in Raleigh runs through a handful of highly competitive State Senate districts, and Democrats have recruited an outstanding group of candidates ready to flip these seats in November.
Join us as we welcome three of North Carolina's frontline Senate challengers:
-District 7: Jessica Bichler, New Hanover County
A longtime small business owner who understands the challenges facing entrepreneurs and working families on the coast and across North Carolina. District 7 is an R+1 seat that has been competitive for several cycles and presents one of Democrats' best pickup opportunities.
-District 11: James Gailliard, Franklin, Nash, and Vance Counties
A longtime pastor and former two-term member of the North Carolina House, James has been a champion for working families, educational equity, criminal justice reform, and economic opportunity. Democrats came within striking distance of flipping this R+0 district last year.
-District 34: April Cook, Cabarrus County
Co-Founder and Executive Director of the Lake Norman Community Health Clinic, April has dedicated her career to ensuring access to quality healthcare for uninsured families. District 34 is an R+2 seat that continues to trend toward Democrats.
With strong candidates and strong campaigns, Democrats have a real opportunity to flip these seats and change the direction of our state. Come enjoy breakfast, hear directly from these inspiring candidates, and learn how you can help elect Democrats up and down the ballot in 2026.

Movie Night: "DEMOCRACY UNDER SIEGE" Free Screening in South Buncombe
Join the South Buncombe Cluster to view the Oscar-nominated documentary, Democracy Under Siege.
Director Laura Nix trains her insightful lens on one of American democracy’s most extreme and vital eras in its 250 years of existence. The film connects present-day crises with their roots in American history via commentary with A-list political observers who explore constitutional logjams, executive overreach, and a crisis in judicial ethics, as the country grapples with fundamental challenges that transcend individual presidencies.
The film has been described as a “bombshell” for engaged viewers, offering a compelling mix of humor and serious political commentary. Audience ratings indicate strong approval, with an 8 out of 10 rating.
Snacks will be provided. Seating is limited - please sign up at the link below.

Community Panel on Affordability
How did life become so expensive? Are you struggling over rising costs? Affordability is the top issue on voters’ minds in NC and across the country. Since the war in Iran began a few short months ago, the price of gasoline has doubled. Exorbitant increases in grocery prices, housing, prescription drugs, medical insurance, and household goods are negatively impacting the quality of life in our community. Duke Energy has increased rates, and more are on the horizon. In Buncombe County, ongoing Helene recovery efforts further compound these challenges.
Join NC State Senator, Julie Mayfield, NC State Representatives Eric Ager and Lindsey Prather, and Josh Rudow, PhD, Vice Chair of Helene Housing Recovery Board for a panel discussion on how global, national, and state policies are affecting food, energy, healthcare, and housing costs here at home. Learn from these local leaders as they outline why life is so unaffordable right now and bring forth potential solutions.
Who should attend: Riceville, Swannanoa, and Black Mountain residents who are concerned about the affordability of their everyday lives. Friends across the county are welcome too.
