Gov. Roy Cooper has promises to keep
Gov. Roy Cooper made lots of promises on the campaign trial. Now that he's in office, can he keep them?
Posted — UpdatedBut can he keep them?
Promises range from items that headlined the 2016 campaign, such as repealing House Bill 2, to smaller goals, such as reviewing all the state's economic development programs. We assembled our promise tracker from pledges made on Cooper's campaign materials and statements he made during news interviews and debates.
Readers and viewers also submitted suggestions for items we should track. The most frequent viewer requests involved House Bill 2 and a pledge not to raise taxes.
We'll rate his performance on a six-tier scale, from promise kept, signaled by a green thumbs up, to a broken promise, which gets the skull and crossbones.
