North Carolina GOP nominee for governor Mark Robinson loses staff, ad buys after report of racist comments
Editor’s note: This story contains highly offensive language.
Washington — North Carolina Republican Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson‘s campaign for governor is bleeding staff, and ad buys for him are not being renewed, after a CNN investigation found he posted a slew of incendiary, explicit and racist comments on a pornographic website more than a decade ago.
The report, which Robinson denies, has rocked the governor’s race as North Carolinians are about to begin casting their ballots this week, when mail ballots are sent. His opponent in the race is Democratic North Carolina Attorney General Josh Stein.
