  • 𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐟𝐮𝐥. That’s how I feel when I think of my parents and all of the lessons they taught me – especially when it comes to working hard and serving your community. My mom was a public school teacher, and my dad was a small-town lawyer and farmer. I’ve tried to follow in my parents’ footsteps by serving North Carolinians as their state legislator, Attorney General and then as Governor. 𝐖𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐬𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭, 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐍𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫, 𝐈’𝐥𝐥 𝐛𝐞 𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐤𝐞𝐞𝐩 𝐮𝐩

Figures cover domestic political ads paid in dollars, from 4 May 2026. Spend is the sum of Meta’s range midpoints; impressions above one million are reported as “1M+”, so impression figures are floors. Each ad counts in the week its delivery started, with its lifetime spend at our last pull; ads still running before the vote are counted as of 31 October 2026.
