Vice President JD Vance and Michael Whatley Slam Roy Cooper's Far-Left Record at Rally in Greensboro

GREENSBORO - Today, Vice President JD Vance and Michael Whatley slammed Roy Cooper's radical far-left record at a rally in Greensboro. Vance and Whatley hit on Cooper's disastrous record of raising costs on North Carolina families, including healthcare, energy, and housing costs going through the roof, as well as Cooper's release of thousands of hardened criminals, 25 of which went on to kill a North Carolinian.

Vance again backed Whatley as the common sense candidate in this race that is committed to fighting for North Carolina families each day in the Senate. While Roy Cooper bows to the radical left.

"It was an honor to have Vice President Vance in Greensboro to highlight the contrast in this election between common sense and Roy Cooper's extreme left-wing record. Cooper raised taxes, released thousands of violent criminals into our communities and put boys in girls' sports. He is way too extreme for North Carolina. I will fight for every family to make more and keep more of their own money, keep our kids and communities safe, Back the Blue and support all of our men and women in uniform.

While Roy Cooper will stand with radical extreme Democrats, I will fight for North Carolina values!" said Michael Whatley.
