6. Governor Roy Cooper
Roy Cooper is one candidate that many have not heard off but is one that is certainly on the map. North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper is a prime candidate for Democrats as he had managed to persevere through many tough elections in the past and is relatively non-controversial. The Post pointed out “the North Carolinian checks lots of boxes. He’s also, like Brown, a repeat winner in a tough state that Democrats would love to put on the map.”
