BREAKING: Roy Cooper’s Approval Soars, Michael Whatley Flops — Your Wallet on the Line 🚨

A new poll out today puts Governor Roy Cooper’s job approval at a sizzling 54%, while RNC Chair Michael Whatley is stuck in the mud at just 36% approval — and here’s the part that hits your bank account.

Why you should care: Cooper’s high marks come as he slashed hidden fees on utility bills and cracked down on surprise medical billing, putting an estimated $200 back in the average family’s pocket this year. Meanwhile, voters tied to Whatley’s camp are worried his policies lead to higher insurance premiums and fewer consumer protections.

The money quote: One retiree in the survey said, “Cooper saved me $40 on my electric bill last month. Whatley wants to deregulate insurance. I’ll take the cash.”

Bottom line: This isn’t just political theater — it’s a direct referendum on who fights for your grocery budget. Stay tuned.
