Washington D.C.-- CNN reported today North Carolina Roy Cooper's Office responded to a claim during a North Carolina telephone "rally" on Sunday made by Trump. 

Trump said that the governor said that the Republic National Convention in Charlotte would be limited to only "10 people" in an arena that seats 19,000. 

"That is incorrect," Cooper spokesman Ford Porter told CNN in an email on Monday, when asked about Trump's claim.

"The Governor and state health officials worked with the RNC to safely hold their convention and asked for written plans for keeping attendees safe. Instead, beginning on Memorial Day, the President and RNC staff demanded a guarantee that they could hold a full convention without social distancing or face coverings. This was not a guarantee the Governor could make, particularly months in advance."
