Voting is expected to take place throughout the state from 6:30 a.m. until 7:30 p.m . In the semi-closed primary , candidates must meet a threshold of 15 percent at the congressional district or statewide level in order to be considered viable . The 110 pledged delegates to the 2020 Democratic National Convention will be allocated proportionally on the basis of the results of the primary . Of the 110 pledged delegates , between 4 and 9 are allocated to each of the state 's 13 congressional districts and another 14 are allocated to party leaders and elected officials ( PLEO delegates ) , in addition to 24 at-large pledged delegates . Bonus delegates will be allocated as North Carolina shares a primary date with numerous other states on Super Tuesday ; these numbers do not yet account for these delegates
