Kevin Crutchfield started his political career by serving on the Cabarrus County Republican Party Executive Committee. He resigned his position to run for office in 2022. [3] During his first term in office WBTV cited multiple sources who confirmed that Rep. Kevin Crutchfield allegedly sought a job in Democratic Governor-Elect Josh Stein's the administration as he considered whether to vote to override the Governor Roy Cooper's veto of a controversial Senate Bill 382. In an email to WBTV on Wednesday,Dec. 11,Crutchfield confirmed that he applied for a job in the administration of Governor-Elect Josh Stein. The Charlotte TV Station reported that several people with knowledge of the House Republican Caucus’s inner workings -- each of whom spoke with WBTV on the condition they not be named to discuss internal deliberations -- believed Crutchfield had been offered a job in the Stein Administration in exchange for upholding Cooper’s veto of SB 382. Rep. Crutchfield eventually voted for the override and failed to receive an offer in the Stein administration. [4]
