Roy Cooper wins election in North Carolina as Democrats hope disapproval with Trump gives them advantage
Roy Cooper has won the US Senate election in North Carolina, the Associated Press reports, a significant victory for Democrats in their quest to regain control of Congress’s upper chamber.
North Carolina has not elected a Democrat to the US Senate since 2008, and the success of Cooper, a former governor, brings his party one seat closer to retaking control of a chamber they lost two years ago, when Donald Trump returned to the White House.
