Republican Lieutenant Governor Mark Robinson lost the race for North Carolina Governor to Democratic Attorney General Josh Stein, ending a campaign marked by controversy and a significant poll deficit.
After a CNN investigation uncovered inflammatory posts linked to Robinson, many Republicans distanced themselves, with him describing the coverage as a 'digital lynching' and filing a lawsuit against CNN.
Despite previous inflammatory comments related to gender identity and race, Robinson claimed some of his Facebook posts were poorly worded but affirmed, 'there is no anti-semitism standing here in front of you.'
Mark Robinson's campaign was plagued by issues from his past, including allegations of racist remarks and a controversial online presence that likely contributed to his defeat.
