A new
report reveals Democrat Roy Cooper is staying cooped up, reusing
old photos, and hosting few public events, which raises questions about his
"basement" campaign strategy.
- "[T]he frequency with which
Cooper’s campaign posts recycled photos is indicative of how little
campaigning he’s done."
- "Cooper
has kept his public appearances to a minimum since he formally launched
his 2026 campaign in late July."
- "His campaign
schedule is light in comparison to many other 2026 Senate
candidates."
- "Cooper’s
campaign account has since posted photos of the candidate wearing the
same exact outfit on the same field on numerous occasions in posts
with vague captions, including on October 10, October 11, October 14,
and October 18."
"Roy Cooper is copying Biden's basement strategy, and
it won't pay off for him. While Cooper stays cooped up, Michael Whatley is
fighting for North Carolinians." -RNC Spokeswoman Delanie Bomar
