InfoLt. Governor 1921-1925. After winning the 1920 election, Cooper announced his candidacy for NC Governor in the 1924 election; this action was widely ridiculed in the press since he had not taken office as Lt. Governor. Then in 1921 several of Cooper's business contacts in Wilmington sued him, keeping his name in the news through the year.

Cooper refused to play the historic final role of a lieutenant governor in presiding over the inauguration of the new governor and council of state in 1925.
