Summary
Democrat Josh Stein has been elected as North Carolina’s first Jewish governor, defeating Republican Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson in a race dominated by Robinson’s controversial remarks and extreme rhetoric.
Stein, the state’s attorney general, ran on a platform focused on his work against opioids, support for abortion rights, and opposition to unchecked Republican power.
Robinson’s campaign was marred by inflammatory comments about women, LGBTQ+ individuals, and racial minorities, as well as a CNN report linking him to a disturbing online persona, which he denied.
Robinson’s divisive profile ultimately led to a significant loss, with even Republican swing voters distancing themselves.
There is sanity in the world… well fool on you that just means Robinson has more time to devote to his first love… posting in the comment section of nude africa.
Literally the only good news.
Not surprising
Every time I see this headline I think it’s saying Jill Stein, and I’m very confused.
