Mark Robinson, the lieutenant governor of North Carolina and Republican gubernatorial candidate, has been embroiled in controversy throughout his political career. Known for his conservative views and provocative statements, Robinson has faced personal allegations and negative press coverage. Recently, he has been accused of frequenting an adult video store in the past, and making disturbing posts on a pornography website message board.
Robinson’s campaign has denied these allegations, calling them "bulls***." The lieutenant governor has also faced backlash for past inflammatory comments about various groups, including Muslims, Jews, transgender people, and women. His controversial statements have drawn criticism from various communities.
Despite his strong anti-abortion stance, Robinson revealed in a campaign ad that his wife had undergone an abortion 30 years ago, describing it as a "difficult decision." While he supports North Carolina’s 12-week abortion law, his past controversies have raised concerns about his electability in the upcoming gubernatorial race.
Polls indicate that Robinson is trailing the Democratic candidate, Josh Stein, who leads by margins ranging from 6 to 10 points. Notably, Robinson struggles to gain support from women voters, which could affect his chances in the election. The lieutenant governor’s controversial past and provocative statements may hinder his appeal to key demographics in North Carolina.
