Raleigh, NC - The North Carolina Association of Educators (NCAE) is celebrating the primary election victories of Roy Cooper and Judge Christine Walczyk. NCAE endorsed Cooper for the U.S. Senate and Judge Walczyk for the North Carolina Court of Appeals.
“Tonight, we celebrate alongside Roy Cooper and Judge Walczyk," said Tamika Walker Kelly, NCAE President. "We endorsed these candidates knowing they will be strong advocates not only for public education, but for building a more equitable North Carolina for our students, educators, and working-class families. The people of North Carolina have made it clear with their votes: these are the leaders our state needs now more than ever.”
NCAE also congratulates Rev. Dr. Rodney Sadler, our endorsed candidate in NC House District 106, for his resounding victory, tonight.
