He filed for re-election on December 5, 2025 and appears on the November 3, 2026 general-election ballot against Democrat Charles Dudley of Havelock; State Board of Elections candidate-filing data lists no primary in the District 3 contest [5]. Brinson's city of residence is listed as New Bern [5].\n\n## Background and education\n\nThe North Carolina Republican Senate Caucus states that Brinson is \"a New Bern Native who graduated from New Bern Senior High School, where he was Senior Class President,\" that he attended the United States Military Academy at West Point, that he \"served as his company's Honor Representative for two years,\" and that he graduated with a B.S. in political science [9]. His campaign biography says he earned a Master of Public Administration from the University of Oklahoma, attending classes at night and on weekends [10].\n\n## Career\n\nThe Republican Senate Caucus states that after graduating from West Point, Brinson \"became an Aviation officer in the United States Army,\" and that \"after 28 years, and at the rank of Lieutenant Colonel, Bob left the military and moved back home to New Bern\" [9]. His campaign biography lists combat and operational deployments to \"Somalia, Bosnia, Kuwait, and northern Japan after the 2011 earthquake, tsunami and nuclear disaster,\" and postings including Alabama, Colorado, Germany, Georgia, Korea, Hawaii, Japan, Texas and Virginia [10].\n\nHe was elected a City of New Bern alderman in 2022 and, in 2023, was elected by his colleagues to serve as mayor pro tempore [9][10]. His campaign biography says that as an alderman he \"initiated and filled a Pedestrian and Bicycle Committee that advises, prioritizes, and helps find funding for sidewalk and bike lane projects,\" and that he serves as the city's appointee to the New Bern Area Metropolitan Planning Organization and the Civil Military Affairs Commission at Cherry Point [10].\n\nIn the same account he describes himself as a former county chairman, former member-at-large for precincts (organization and training) and former member-at-large for human resources (volunteer coordinator) in the Craven County Republican Party; as the current secretary of the North Carolina Federation of Republican Men; and as a member-at-large in the 3rd Congressional District [10]. He also lists volunteer roles including coaching his children's soccer team, president and vice president of a high school Parent, Teacher, Student Association, \"AWANA Leader and Club Leader,\" and \"Elder and Chairman of Elders of my church\" [10].\n\n## Office history\n\nBrinson reached the Senate by appointment rather than by winning the seat at a general election. WCTI reported that Sen. Jim Perry submitted his resignation on July 2, 2024, that the Republican 2nd Senatorial District Committee nominated Brinson to complete Perry's term, and that Gov. Roy Cooper appointed him on July 30, 2024 to the 2nd Senatorial District seat, then covering Craven, Beaufort and Lenoir counties [8]. Brinson, at the time a New Bern alderman for Ward 6, resigned that seat before taking the oath of office because state statutes prohibit serving in two elected offices simultaneously [8]. He said he was \"both humbled and honored that the 2nd Senatorial District Committee has selected me\" to fill the remainder of Perry's term [8]. The General Assembly's member record lists him with \"1+\" terms in the Senate and none in the House [1].\n\nHe had separately won the Republican primary for the renumbered 3rd District on March 5, 2024, several months before the appointment, taking 13,211 votes to Michael Speciale's 11,069 [7]. In the November 5, 2024 general election he was elected in District 3 with 64,025 votes to Democrat Charles T. Dudley's 42,704 [6]. Dudley is again his opponent in 2026 [5].\n\n## Legislative record and accomplishments\n\nIn the 2025-2026 session Brinson sits on the Senate committees on Agriculture, Energy, and Environment; Appropriations on Agriculture, Natural, and Economic Resources; Education/Higher Education; State and Local Government; and Transportation. He is also a member of the Joint Legislative Transportation Oversight Committee and the Joint Legislative Emergency Management Oversight Committee [2].\n\nThe General Assembly's records list him as a primary sponsor of Senate Bill 245, \"Expand Remote Drivers License Services,\" which was enacted as S.L. 2025-91; the bill page lists him in the primary-sponsor group alongside Sens. B. Newton and Lazzara [3][4]. Other measures on which the General Assembly lists him as a primary sponsor, and which had not become law as of the access date, include Senate Bill 394, \"Prohibit Foreign Ownership of NC Land\"; Senate Bill 228, \"Disabled Veterans Tax Relief Bill\"; Senate Bill 8, a local act for the 3rd Senatorial District; Senate Bill 803, \"Beaufort Dist. B Occupancy Tax\"; and Senate Bill 1077, \"City of New Bern Even-Year Elections\" [3].\n\n## Sources\n\n[1] [Senator Bob Brinson - Biography](https://www.ncleg.gov/Members/Biography/S/448) - North Carolina General Assembly, accessed 2026-07-31\n[2] [Senator Bob Brinson - Committees](https://www.ncleg.gov/Members/Committees/S/448) - North Carolina General Assembly, accessed 2026-07-31\n[3] [Senator Bob Brinson - Introduced Bills](https://www.ncleg.gov/Members/IntroducedBills/S/448) - North Carolina General Assembly, accessed 2026-07-31\n[4] [Senate Bill 245 / S.L. 2025-91 - Expand Remote Drivers License Services](https://www.ncleg.gov/BillLookUp/2025/S245) - North Carolina General Assembly, accessed 2026-07-31\n[5] [Candidate Listing 2026 (Candidate_Listing_2026.csv)](https://s3.amazonaws.com/dl.ncsbe.gov/Elections/2026/Candidate%20Filing/Candidate_Listing_2026.csv) - North Carolina State Board of Elections, accessed 2026-07-31\n[6] [2024 general election precinct-level results (results_pct_20241105.zip)](https://s3.amazonaws.com/dl.ncsbe.gov/ENRS/2024_11_05/results_pct_20241105.zip) - North Carolina State Board of Elections, accessed 2026-07-31\n[7] [2024 primary election precinct-level results (results_pct_20240305.zip)](https://s3.amazonaws.com/dl.ncsbe.gov/ENRS/2024_03_05/results_pct_20240305.zip) - North Carolina State Board of Elections, accessed 2026-07-31\n[8] [Bob Brinson appointed to complete Senator Jim Perry's term](https://wcti12.com/news/local/bob-brinson-nominated-to-complete-senator-jim-perrys-term-awaits-governors-nod) - WCTI 12, accessed 2026-07-31\n[9] [Senator Bob Brinson](https://ncstatesenate.com/members/bob-brinson/) - North Carolina Republican Senate Caucus, accessed 2026-07-31\n[10] [Meet Bob](https://www.votebobbrinson.com/meet-bob) - Vote Bob Brinson campaign website, accessed 2026-07-31","birthdate":null,"firstname":"Robert","fullname":"Robert Wayne Brinson JR","lastname":"Brinson","middlename":"Wayne","suffix":"JR","summary":"Bob Brinson is the Republican NC State Senator for District\u202f3, a former Army officer and New\u202fBern Alderman seeking re\u2011election in 2026.","token":"56017deb75d02154"},{"bio_snippet":"","biography":null,"birthdate":null,"firstname":"DAN","fullname":"DAN BRISTOL","lastname":"BRISTOL","middlename":null,"suffix":null,"summary":null,"token":"iYx6PJagJX"},{"bio_snippet":"Per the NC voter file: DEM voter in Richmond County since 2011.","biography":"> **Status update.** Nigel William Bristow lost the Democratic primary for U.S. House District 9, finishing second of four candidates with 11,824 votes; Richard N.
