{"biography":"Trevor Cole Hardwick is the Democratic nominee for the North Carolina State Senate in District 36 in the November 3, 2026 general election. The Democratic primary scheduled for March 3, 2026, was canceled, and Hardwick advanced without appearing on the primary ballot, setting him up to face incumbent Republican Senator Eddie Settle in the general election [1].\n\nPublicly available sources do not provide details about Hardwick\u2019s education, professional background, or prior elected experience. The Ballotpedia entry lists only his candidacy and contact information, with no biographical narrative beyond his name and party affiliation.\n\nSimilarly, there is no information on Hardwick\u2019s career history, policy positions, or campaign platform in the sources consulted. The lack of a completed Ballotpedia Candidate Connection survey means that voters currently have limited insight into his legislative priorities or prior public service.\n\nHardwick\u2019s campaign contact information includes an email address, trevcolehard@gmail.com, which is offered as a way for constituents and media to reach him. No phone number, campaign website, or official portrait image is provided in the sources. The only images on the Ballotpedia page are generic logos and a placeholder silhouette, not a candidate photograph.\n\nGiven the limited data, voters seeking more information should consider reaching out directly via the provided email or monitoring future updates to the Ballotpedia profile and official filing records for additional details.\n\n## Sources\n- [1] [Trevor Hardwick](https://ballotpedia.org/Trevor_Hardwick)\n- [13] [Candidate Profiles \u2013 NC Voter Guide](https://ncvoterguide.org/profiles/)\n- [14] [North Carolina Democratic Voting Guide with Endorsements for Voters](https://bluevoterguide.org/state/north-carolina)\n- [15] [Results from 2026 Candidate Filing - Carolina Forward](https://carolinaforward.org/blog/results-from-2026-candidate-filing/)","campaigns":[{"contest":"state_senate_036","county":"alexander","county_count":4,"electiondate":"Tue, 03 Nov 2026 00:00:00 GMT","pgr":"general","state":"NC","title":"Nc State Senate District 36"}],"cf_filings":[],"firstname":"Trevor","fullname":"Trevor Cole Hardwick","lastname":"Hardwick","middlename":"Cole","office_history":[{"campaigns":[{"contest":"state_senate_036","contest_title":"Nc State Senate District 36","county":"alexander","county_count":4,"electiondate":"2026-11-03","office_county":null,"office_key":"state_senate","office_title":"State Senator","party":"DEM","pgr":"general","state":"NC"}],"county":null,"cycles":[{"general":{"contest":"state_senate_036","contest_title":"Nc State Senate District 36","county":"alexander","county_count":4,"electiondate":"2026-11-03","office_county":null,"office_key":"state_senate","office_title":"State Senator","party":"DEM","pgr":"general","state":"NC"},"party":"DEM","primary":null,"term":null,"year":2026}],"office_key":"state_senate","office_title":"State Senator","state":"NC","terms":[]}],"summary":"Trevor Cole Hardwick is the Democratic candidate for North Carolina State Senate District 36 in the 2026 election.","terms":[],"token":"1595432d5e80ce07"}
