North Carolina Democratic Governor Roy Cooper recently announced that he has opted out of being considered as Vice President Kamala Harris' running mate. Governor Cooper stated that he believed it was not the right time for him or his state to pursue this opportunity and informed the Harris campaign early on about his decision.
Expressing confidence in Harris' ability to select a strong candidate, Cooper emphasized that Harris has a wide range of choices for her running mate. He also refrained from commenting on any potential Senate run in the future, indicating that he will focus on completing his term as governor before making any decisions about his political future.
