NRA Endorses Michael Whatley For Senate 

This week, the National Rifle Association announced that the organization officially endorsed Michael Whatley for the United States Senate. This is yet another major organization that is part of the conservative coalitions lining up behind Whatley ahead of the March 3 Primary. Democrat Senate candidates, former Governor Roy Cooper and Justin Dues, both received an “F” from the NRA. 

About the endorsement, Whatley said, “I’m honored to have the endorsement of the National Rifle Association. As North Carolina’s next Senator, I will unapologetically defend your constitutional right to keep and bear arms.”  

 

Congressional Endorsements 

1st Congressional District: Laurie Buckout, Asa Buck and Eric Rouse received an A from the organization based on the questionnaire. N.C. Senator Bobby Hanig received an A based on his track record in the North Carolina General Assembly. In contrast, Democrat incumbent Congressman Don Davis received an “F” further shattering his moderate image. 

 

The NRA also endorsed North Carolina’s current Republican House of Representative Members: Rep. Virginia Foxx, Rep. David Rouzer, Rep. Pat Harrigan, Rep. Chuck Edwards, Rep. Brad Knott, and Rep. Tim Moore.
