Clinton Tells N.C. Voters to Support 'Ray,' Not Roy Cooper for Governor

Hillary Clinton flubbed a fellow Democratic candidate's name during a campaign rally Thursday in North Carolina, asking voters to support "Ray" instead of Roy Cooper for governor.

"Are you ready to elect Ray Cooper your governor?" Clinton asked.

Roy Cooper, not "Ray," is actually running to be governor of North Carolina. He has served as the state's attorney general since 2001.
