Despite early buzz about Roy Cooper for the VP slot and his long-standing personal ties with Harris, I think the math in moving past him was similar, in that maybe he could have turned NC, but less sure about his appeal in those other important states you note.

This is a major step toward making sure 16m kids donโt go hungry.
More than 1.4 million North Carolinians โ children, disabled people, and seniors โ rely on SNAP benefits to afford the rising cost of groceries. USDAโs refusal to deploy emergency funds to make sure families do not go hungry is unacceptable.
