I'm going to vote for Ken Spaulding.

I've been doing some research.

And I think Roy Cooper is too entrenched in economics and not enough in civil rights.

Ken Spaulding seems to have a great grip on things all around.

I mean, when McCrory was deciding on whether or not it should be legal for magistrates to opt out of performing gay marriage, Roy Cooper gave his opinion on why it would be a bad idea to allow them to opt out... What was his opinion?

"Cooper said the law is the kind of legislation that turns businesses away. "We need to be welcoming as a state," he said. "I think we need to encourage having all kinds of people here, and I think some businesses look with scorn at states who pass these kinds of laws. So, I think it's bad for jobs. I think it's bad for our families. I think it's bad for the economy."

It seems to me, that even when it concerned the civil rights of LGBT people, Roy Cooper's first reaction was, "Well how does it effect the economy???"

Plus, Progress Energy, Lorillard Tobacco and Pfizer make up some of Roy Cooper's top contributors.

These are just a few reasons I think I'm going to go with Spaulding.
