NARAL Pro-Choice North Carolina has endorsed Hampton Dellinger.
In a statement today, the group said that the Democratic candidate for lieutenant governor is "100 percent pro-choice" and electable.
"He not only has been a long-time consistent supporter of reproductive rights, but he is also positioned to win," said Executive Director Melissa Reed in a statement.
Dellinger said that he was excited to receive the endorsement.
"Since we cannot count on the U.S. Supreme Court to protect women's reproductive health and freedom, it is more important than ever that we elect state officials who are committed to protecting those rights," he said.
Dellinger faces state Sen. Walter Dalton, Canton Mayor Pat Smathers and Winston-Salem City Councilman Dan Besse in the Democratic primary.
