Who is Pat McCrory? / Facts

He was appointed by George W. Bush to serve on the United States Homeland Security Advisory Council (HSAC), from 2002 to 2006
McCrory was the Republican nominee for Governor of North Carolina in the 2008 general election and was defeated 50% to 46% by Lieutenant Governor Beverly Perdue, the Democratic nominee
After the 2008 election loss, McCrory returned to the private sector
On January 31, 2012, he launched his second campaign for governor, winning the election later that year
While mayors of Charlotte have had trouble winning statewide office, McCrory became the first mayor of Charlotte to win the state's highest office, as well as the first Republican state governor since 1993
In 2013 McCrory signed a repeal of the Racial Justice Act of 2009, which had allowed appeals of death sentences in cases where racial bias had influenced the conviction or sentence
It had been an effort by the legislature to compensate for a history of racial bias that resulted in a significantly higher rate of blacks sentenced to death for murder than for whites convicted of the same crime
In 2016, McCrory came to national attention after signing the Public Facilities Privacy & Security Act
Among other provisions it legislated that in government buildings, individuals may use only the restrooms that correspond to the sex on their birth certificates
This prevented transgender people who do not alter their birth certificates from using the restroom consistent with their gender identity
The United States Department of Justice, in addition to several citizens, have filed lawsuits against McCrory and the state
The Justice Department said that North Carolina is in violation of federal civil rights laws
Separately, McCrory has filed suit against the federal government, asking a court to find the state law constitutional
In 2016, McCrory lost a competitive re-election campaign against state attorney general Roy Cooper
Commentators attributed his loss to a backlash in the state against his support for HB2, from people who had supported recognizing transgender rights to use facilities consistent with their gender
On election night, the race was too close to call; McCrory trailed Cooper by about 5000 votes, with tens of thousands of absentee and provisional ballots had not yet been counted
The McCrory campaign filed election protests alleging that voter fraud helped Cooper in 50 counties but no fraud was found
It was not until December 5 that McCrory conceded the race to Cooper
He is the first sitting governor of North Carolina to lose a bid for reelection since Charles Manly in 1850
