Republicans have pulled ahead of Democrats in voter registration in North Carolina for the first time ever, a milestone that underscores shifting political dynamics in one of the country’s most closely watched battlegrounds.

As of early January, the state reports roughly 2.315 million registered Republicans compared to 2.313 million registered Democrats, giving the GOP a slim but historic advantage.
