Money in this race

From FEC filings for 2025–26. Outside spending is money a group spends on its own about a candidate — TV and online ads, mail, canvassing. It is not a donation to the campaign, and the candidate does not control it. Supporting means it was spent to help that candidate win; Opposing means it was spent to defeat them, usually on attack ads. Groups report it within 24 or 48 hours as the election nears. Raised is the campaign's own fundraising, as of its latest quarterly report. Largest donors come from each outside spender's own FEC receipts, with each donor's share of its itemized receipts; donors under $100,000 are not named.

Roy Cooper released 3,500 criminals. 18 of them were murderers. Logan was the casualty of an agenda. A man pulled Logan out of bed. Forced her on her knees. He stuck a shotgun on her chest. And pulled the trigger for no reason. 40 years of Roy Cooper is enough.
Loaded LanguageCard StackingAppeal to FearConspiracy Appeal42.9% of sentences flagged

Loaded Language: The word 'criminals' is a loaded label applied to all 3,500 individuals, framing them in the most negative light rather than using neutral terms like 'inmates' or 'prisoners' — for example: 'released 3,500 criminals'

Card Stacking: By immediately following the total release figure with the most extreme subset (murderers), the framing selectively emphasizes the worst cases to imply the entire release was dangerous, omitting context about the nature of the other cases or the circumstances of release — for example: '18 of them were murderers'

Appeal to Fear: Highlighting that murderers were among those released is designed to provoke fear and anxiety about public safety without providing context about conditions of release or recidivism risk — for example: '18 of them were murderers'

Conspiracy Appeal: The phrase 'casualty of an agenda' implies a hidden, sinister plan orchestrated against Logan without specifying who is behind it or what the agenda is — for example: 'casualty of an agenda'

Loaded Language: The word 'criminals' is a loaded label applied to all 3,500 individuals, framing them in the most negative light rather than using neutral terms like 'inmates' or 'prisoners' — for example: 'released 3,500 criminals'

Card Stacking: By immediately following the broad release figure with the most extreme subset (murderers), the passage selectively highlights the worst cases to imply the entire release was dangerous, omitting context about the nature of the full 3,500 releases — for example: '18 of them were murderers'

Appeal to Fear: Singling out murderers among those released is designed to provoke fear and anxiety about public safety, implying a direct threat to the community — for example: '18 of them were murderers'

Name Calling: The term 'leftist' is used as a derogatory political label to discredit the unnamed group or ideology being blamed — for example: 'leftist agenda'

Scapegoating: A vague political group ('leftist agenda') is blamed for harm done to Logan, attributing complex circumstances to a single ideological enemy — for example: 'casualty of a leftist agenda'

Conspiracy Appeal: The phrase 'agenda' implies a hidden, coordinated sinister plot by a political group acting against individuals like Logan — for example: 'leftist agenda'

With the stroke of a pen—Roy Cooper released 3,500 prisoners. Innocent families paid the price because Roy Cooper chose CRIMINALS over North Carolinians. Roy Cooper has been in politics 40 years, and we’re paying the price.
Loaded LanguageBlack-and-White FallacyAppeal to PrejudiceScapegoating33.3% of sentences flagged

Loaded Language: The word 'CRIMINALS' is capitalized for emphasis and used as an emotionally charged label to trigger fear and outrage rather than convey nuanced factual information about the individuals released — for example: 'CRIMINALS'

Appeal to Fear: The image of thousands of criminals being 'let out on the street' is designed to provoke anxiety about public safety and assign personal blame to Roy Cooper — for example: 'let 3,500 CRIMINALS out on the street'

Name Calling: Labeling all released individuals as 'CRIMINALS' without context dehumanizes them and is used to discredit Cooper's decision rather than engage with its merits — for example: 3,500 CRIMINALS

What this page is

  • An ad is on this page because its own "Paid for by" line is a campaign in this race; or it comes from a national Senate group and ran mostly in NC; or it ran mostly in NC and names a candidate — unless its sponsor is a campaign for some other office. Ads from outside groups appear alongside the campaigns' own.
  • Campaigns run one text as many separate ads. Identical text from the same sponsor is one card here, marked with its number of variants.
  • A technique is a specific manipulative move in the wording, found by our model and explained in one line. It is not a claim that the ad is false.
  • Claims are checked when a reader asks: press "Check this ad's claims" on a card. The check runs once and its result is shown to everyone afterwards. The ten ads with the most money behind them in each race are checked ahead of time.
  • Claim verdicts say what the cited sources say. A verdict that an ad is wrong or misleading is shown only when it cites an established fact-checker or an institutional record — Congress, a federal agency, a court — and its confidence is not low; a weaker one is not shown at all. Each verdict shows what it rests on and how confident it is. If we got one wrong, press Disagree: a verdict that readers dispute and no one defends comes down.
  • Video ads come from the campaigns' own YouTube channels; the transcript is analyzed. Meta ads are analyzed on their text; their video and images are not, yet.
