Kathy Ellen Manning (* 3. Dezember 1956) ist eine US-amerikanische Anwältin und Politiker im Bundesstaat der Vereinigten Staaten North Carolina. Sie ist die aktuelle Vertreterin des 6. Kongresswahlbezirks von North Carolina (Stand: 2021). Dieser Kongresswahlbezirk liegt im Piedmont Triad und umfasst Greensboro und den größten Teil von Winston-Salem. Im Rahmen der Wahl zum Repräsentantenhaus der Vereinigten Staaten 2018 war sie für den 13. Kongresswahlbezirk von North Carolina nominiert und gewann 2020 die Wahl für den 6. Kongresswahlbezirk von North Carolina.

Early life and education

Manning was born to a Jewish family in Detroit, Michigan, on December 3, 1956.[1][2] Her father worked for the Ford Motor Company for forty years, and her mother was a public school teacher. Manning attended Harvard University, where she sang a cappella with the Radcliffe Pitches.[3][4] She also attended the University of Michigan Law School, earning a juris doctor.[5]

Early career

After graduating from college, Manning moved to Greensboro, her husband's hometown, in 1987. Manning was the first woman to serve as board chair of the Jewish Federations of North America[6] from 2009 to 2012.[7] She also was the founding board chair of Prizmah: Center for Jewish Day Schools in New York.[8]

In the 2018 elections, Manning ran against Republican incumbent Ted Budd for the United States House of Representatives in Vorlage:Ushr.[9] At the time, the district stretched from southwestern Greensboro to the northern exurbs of Charlotte. On paper, the district tilted Republican; Donald Trump had carried the district two years earlier with 53 percent of the vote. She lost to Budd, 51%–45%.

After a court-ordered redistricting in 2019, Manning's home in Greensboro was drawn into the neighboring Vorlage:Ushr, represented by three-term Republican Mark Walker. The new 6th included all of Guilford County and swept west to grab the more Democratic areas of neighboring Forsyth County, including almost all of Winston-Salem.[10] The old 6th included eastern Greensboro, as well as much of the eastern Triad and some outer suburbs of the Triangle.

On December 2, 2019, hours before the new map was issued, Manning announced she would run in the 6th.[11] The new district was significantly more compact and Democratic than its predecessor. Had it existed in 2016, Hillary Clinton would have won it with over 59 percent of the vote[12]–a near-mirror image of Trump's 56 percent in the old 6th.[13] On paper, the new 6th was one of the most Democratic white-majority districts in the South.

With most observers believing the 6th was a likely Democratic pickup,[14] Walker announced he would not run for a fourth term.[15]

Manning won the Democratic primary, and in the general election, she defeated Republican nominee Lee Haywood with 62 percent of the vote. Upon her swearing-in on January 3, 2021;[16] she became the first Democrat to represent this district since 1985, and the first white Democrat to represent a Triad-based district since Steve Neal left office in 1995.
