When Hurricane Helene hit, Roy Cooper fled to New York, abandoning the people of North Carolina. @WhatleyNC: “He was totally unprepared for the disaster... In fact, Roy Cooper vetoed a bill that would have delivered key disaster relief…”

Candidate Cooper is RUNNING AWAY from Governor Cooper’s record of making stuff cost more. Under Cooper’s watch energy costs went up 30%, housing costs went up 85%, and health insurance premiums jumped 183%. NC families cannot afford more of Roy Cooper’s atrocious record.

Black woman shares that she voted early in Georgia. “[Democrats] were hoping to leave the border open long enough, so that a large majority of foreigners could come in here & overcrowd us black people out.” “We have been played.” “We have been played for fools.” “We have been misused.” “We have been abused by the democrats.” “I went red all the way.” TikTok: @ geebabyteaup3

🚨 SICKENING: Governor Roy Cooper released this monster. Decarlos Brown Jr. then stabbed and killed Iryna Zarutska on a Charlotte train. Cooper also released 83 other murderers during COVID so they wouldn’t get sick in jail. Those men went on to kill 25 more people. This is what soft-on-crime Democrats do. They prioritize the feelings of killers over the lives of innocent Americans. Iryna deserved better. North Carolina deserved better. America deserves better.

🚨 JUST NOW: President Trump exposes North Carolina Senate candidate Roy Cooper (D) for RELEASING Iryna Zarutska's killer, Decarlos Brown Jr. "Governor Roy Cooper released this man, who then killed beautiful Iryna Zarutska. He then released 83 other murderers, so they wouldn’t catch COVID while in jail, who went on to kill 25 people! President DONALD J. TRUMP" Now he wants a promotion to the U.S. Senate. DON'T DO IT. North Carolina, vote Michael Whatley (R)! Brown was a convicted armed robber. While he was on post-release supervision, he was arrested again in February 2021 for assault on a female, and the state let him stay on the streets He was arrested twice more in 2024 and 2025. In August 2025, he took her life.

If you want North Carolina to look like France in the future, vote for Cooper. I’ll be voting for Whatley.
Just some reasons I will never vote for Cooper: 1. COVID shutdown: churches closed, ABC stores open. 2. He vetoed the Parents' Bill of Rights. 3. He vetoed the Fairness in Women's Sports bill. 4. Opposed restrictions on gender-transition treatment for minors. 5. Allowed destruction of Raleigh during George Floyd riots. 6. Marched with protesters. You may not like Whatley, but this is not about who you like, it's about who will best reflect your values and represent our state.

I heard that Cooper vetoed 104 bills as NC governor. Including voter ID twice!! North Carolinians are completely DONE with Cooper. No, for any role in government!

Roy Cooper vetoed North Carolina’s Parents’ Bill of Rights (SB 49) in July 2023. The legislature overrode his veto, but the record is clear. When parents tried to reclaim basic rights over their kids’ education and well-being, Roy Cooper vetoed it.
REMINDER: Michael Whatley repeatedly appointed a convicted child sex predator to a leadership position in the NCGOP when he was chair. Even the predator himself says Whatley knew about his criminal history.

Roy Cooper’s convicted pedophile friend, Chad Turner, local LGBTQ leader and registered sex offender, has adopted a baby boy. Turner is the president of the Carolinas LGBT+ Chamber of Commerce and a registered sex offender who was charged in 1998 with “committing or attempting a lewd act upon a child under 16”. A jury found him guilty of fondling a 15-year-old male church member while he worked as a youth minister in Gaffney, South Carolina. But, North Carolina has no problem with him adopting a baby boy. Wild.

PEOPLE ARE OUTRAGED! Democrat Roy Cooper wants North Carolinians to believe he's the law-and-order candidate. But @RobertBurnsNC is calling BS! 🔥Cooper's 40-year political record begs one explosive question: Why aren't law enforcement organizations lining up to endorse Roy Cooper? 🎥 WATCH Mayor Burns dismantle Cooper's public-safety narrative! #ncpol

There could not be a larger contrast this election between @WhatleyNC and radical left Roy Cooper. Cooper wants to raise your taxes, put men in women's sports, and empty out the prisons. NC needs a fighter in the Senate, not a far-left radical that hides in his basement.

It’s time! Please VOTE! Michael is a great man, and he is the best choice for North Carolina. The ads that claim "Whatley hired a known sex offender" are misleading at best. Robert King said that Harvey West was never "hired." West was Elected by HIS DISTRICT as 1st Congressional District chair. He was not appointed or "hired" by Whatley. Harvey had been serving on the Plan of Organization Committee for years under previous chairs long before Michael became State Chair. West even supported Whatley's opponent for State Party Chair. The Asheville reporter who first pushed the strongest version of the claim later had to acknowledge that the "appointed as district chair" was INCORRECT. This is an extremely important election for North Carolina; if it wasn’t Coopers team wouldn’t be trying so hard to discredit Michael. We have to show up. #vote

.@WhatleyNC will always put NC families FIRST! Roy Cooper abandoned NC families putting illegal aliens and criminals before our own citizens. This is unacceptable. NC needs a fighter in the Senate, not someone who bows down to the radical left!

As Hurricane Helene was about to hit the United States, Roy Cooper said at a climate conference some areas affected by storms "just shouldn't build back" & "buyouts are better." Roy has never cared about helping storm victims or rebuilding communities.

🚨 ROY COOPER'S ADMINISTRATION LET 3,500 PRISONERS WALK OUT EARLY. It was part of a 2021 deal Cooper's administration struck to settle a COVID lawsuit. 51 of them were serving LIFE SENTENCES. According to the NY Post, 18 of the people released were later CHARGED WITH MURDER. Now Cooper wants a promotion to the U.S. Senate. North Carolina, remember who opened the doors. Vote Michael Whatley.

Roy Cooper was the worst governor in the history of North Carolina. He drove up costs for families across the board. He released 4,200 violent Criminals, vetoed common sense legislation, and supported a wide open Southern border to allow millions of illegal immigrants to flood into the US. It's time to send Cooper packing
