Former Governor Roy Cooper is still much-loved in North Carolina and is rising to meet our present crisis. His opponent is so deeply compromised that this seat is entirely flip-able. Support Roy directly!

Some of us have been following the youngest chair of a state Democratic Party, Anderson Clayton, for the last two years. She summarizes the race and both the challenges and opportunities in her state here.
In a speech more than a year ago, Anderson Clayton said, "North Carolina is not a red state or a purple state, it is an unorganized state…". Well, not anymore! Democrats are running candidates in all 170 state legislative and 14 Congressional districts in North Carolina this year — a huge undertaking for the Party and its allies, and a successful one. Anderson says that any district without a Democrat on the ballot means each Democrat in that district has nowhere to go. Unacceptable. So she and they fixed it. Dig deeper here.
The Opponent
Michael Watley is so ingrained as a Washington DC MAGA lobbyist that NC Republicans say they don't know him. American Bridge's research into Watley's record is astonishingly irrelevant to the interests of North Carolinians. See it here.

Roy Cooper won the Democratic Primary for US Senator on March 3. Democrats turned out 200,000 more votes in their primary than Republicans did in theirs. A similar over performance occurred in Texas.
