Sorry to bother you, John, but this is important:
Republicans control the legislature with a one-vote supermajority. Right now, when they’re not busy with party infighting, they can override my veto. That’s how they managed to ban abortion in North Carolina.
Tricia Cotham is the lawmaker who gave the GOP that supermajority. She did so by betraying her constituents in Mecklenburg County.
In her previous elections, Cotham ran as a Democrat who would defend abortion rights. She told her voters that she would stand up to attacks on reproductive health care. She claimed our state needed leaders to be “unwavering and unapologetic in their support of abortion rights.”
She lied.
Last year, Cotham switched parties — giving the GOP the one vote they needed for a veto-proof supermajority. Then, they passed their cruel abortion ban.
Now, Cotham is gleefully anticipating further veto overrides. She’s making it clear that the GOP’s agenda of extremism has a champion in her.
John, I’m committed to helping Democrats BREAK the Republican supermajority this November, and we start by DEFEATING Tricia Cotham. She broke her promises to her constituents. She lied. She has to go.

Together,
Roy Cooper
North Carolina is set to be one of the most important swing states in the 2024 elections.
Republicans need to win NC to return Donald Trump to the White House. Meanwhile, Roy is committed to flipping our state blue at the presidential level.
Roy is term-limited and can’t run again this time, and our upcoming gubernatorial election is considered the most competitive gubernatorial contest in the country. Meanwhile, Republicans hold a one-seat supermajority in the state legislature — we MUST break the supermajority to prevent the GOP from enacting their radical agenda in North Carolina.
Join Roy in the fight to elect Democrats at every level of the North Carolina ballot this November. Donate today.
