North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper has taken himself out of consideration to be Kamala Harris’ running mate.
Cooper, who’s in the middle of his second term, said on Monday he won’t pursue the vice presidential role in Harris’ presidential campaign, eliminating one of about a half-dozen contenders who could still be selected.
“I strongly support Vice President Harris’ campaign for President. I know she’s going to win and I was honored to be considered for this role,” he wrote on X.
