Incumbent Sheriff Gerald Baker and challenger Willie Rowe were the top finishers among seven in the May primary election. However, neither got 30% of the votes cast plus one, which is needed to win the nomination outright. Rowe got 29.4% of the vote while Baker got 24.06%.
The winner of the July 26 runoff will face Republican challenger Donnie Harrison in November.
WRAL News asked Baker if he was surprised about May's results.
