RALEIGH, N.C. (NewsNation Now) — Madison Cawthorn, Republican, has been elected to represent a western North Carolina U.S. House district.

Cawthorn won the 11th Congressional District, which allows him to fill a vacant seat previously held by Republican Rep. Mark Meadows, who left to serve as President Donald Trump’s chief of staff. Cawthorn defeated Democrat and retired U.S. Air Force Col. Moe Davis.

The 25-year-old Cawthorn will be one of the youngest people to ever serve in the U.S. Congress. He first drew attention after defeating Trump’s preferred candidate in an upset in the June GOP primary runoff.
