Raleigh, N.C. After weeks of bitterly contesting the results of the gubernatorial election, Republican Gov. Pat McCrory on Monday conceded the race to Democratic Attorney General Roy Cooper.
McCrory issued a video statement, saying the state needs to unite behind Cooper moving forward.
"Despite continued questions that should be answered regarding the voting process, I personally believe that the majority of our citizens have spoken, and we now should do everything we can to support the 75th governor of North Carolina, Roy Cooper," he said in the statement.

You are rude and nasty and many have said so to me. You are the creep who just had to be an establishment Republicans and criticize for NO reason. I think I was too nice. You are not an Establishment Republican Elitist. You are a liberal Elitist. The nasty kind. Yep you are. I’d block your dumb ass if I could cuz you are so useless and stink up the place.
That’s what I am hoping for - that McCrory will find a good place in a Trump administration.
WRAL TV is reporting that Cooper’s victory is unlikely to undo HB2. (the bathroom bill) http://www.wral.com/cooper-s-victory-unlikely-to-undo-hb2/16309890/
(Because there is a super majority of Repubs in both houses of the NC Legislature).
Cooper WILL BE as bad as Easley/Perdue/Hunt combined. He is disgusting. But he will have the Repubs in charge of the Legislature so some of his potential damage will be stopped.
