Bruce Thompson was quoted in NOTUS about North Carolina Republican Senator Thom Tillis and the lawmaker’s political future. The article focused on a challenging path forward for a 2026 primary for the incumbent. Some are already talking about the potential for North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper to consider a run for the Senate.

"Roy Cooper has spent the last eight years rebuilding both the infrastructure and the brand of the Democratic Party in North Carolina,” Bruce told the publication. "And I think he views that as his public-service legacy, and it would make sense he would solidify that legacy by running for the Senate in 2026."
