Tillis is right in that Robinson lacks experience. His main appeal is that he’s black. But I and almost everyone I know will vote for him, Tillis be damned.
The treasurer is a wonderful salt of the earth person. I wish he could win.
Dale Folwell, NC treasurer is salt of the earth and honest as the day is long. We need more like him.
I hereby declare that I am snubbing Tillis.
Kinda reminds me of Bill Simon running for Calif. governor on his father’s name. He was worse than Dan Quayle.
You would think a Lt. Governor is qualified to move up a step. I would accuse Tillis of being a closet racist. Robinson could very well lose. It’s under the radar but our party has a problem voting for blacks.
Duplicitous, conniving, back stabbing RINO jackass. Tillis is an elitist, deal making jerk whose reputation in North Carolina is in the toilet. He can’t possibly stop Mark Robinson from becoming the state’s next governor.
Me too.
I wrote a letter to Tillis after the 2020 election (before the certifications were complete) informing him that if he did not fight the fraud that was occurring he would NEVER have another vote from me. One of his lackey staffers eventually responded with a garbage “we need to follow the process and rule of law” reply. He did nothing. He continues to do nothing.
Like all the RINO do-nothings who declared Trump inexperienced and unfit, so to they speak of Robinson. One man with common sense in the office of Governor will be light years ahead of Cooper, Purdue, Hunt, and all the other s.
Screw Tillis. I’ve twice held my nose and voted for him. It ain’t easy.
We don’t want experience. We want people who don’t cave to narratives.
Deep Staters gotta deep state.
Bovine excrement.
“Robinson could very well lose. It’s under the radar but our party has a problem voting for blacks.”
Yes he could easily lose next year. And that problem you mention seemed to be quite true in Kentucky a month ago.
Sorry, Tillis, I’m going to get my friends in NC to vote Robinson. Graham, might be as Conservative as Robinson is, however, I think Robinson would be better.
Same problem here in KY, and so we're still stuck with a white rat guv in a state that's +30R.
I remain skeptical about ALL politicians in that regard, no matter how they manage to present themselves.
Walker was a perfect candidate...but zero experience.
Don;t be stupid......
We have GOT to get rid of Tom Tillis. I voted for him ahead of Jody Cunningham the Democrat nominee....but after I saw how much the RINOs betrayed us in 2020, I swore that would be the absolute last time I ever vote for a RINO. I damn well mean it.
Two comments on the article.
In the beginning it cites an unnamed conservative magazine as the source. Interesting that the electronic news media is even looking at such publications. It later refers to the National Review but never says it was the source of the primary information.
There is a lot more of the article than what was posted and most of it is political minutia to NC. They did not reference the democrats in the race until the last paragraph.
There you go again, and contradict yourself yet again in your own statement - he's the Lt. Governor. He's obviously already been elected previously.
Of course if the Democrats pour in tens of millions of dollars and the conservative base again sits on their behinds and keeps their wallets closed, Robinson will indeed lose without even a fighting chance. North Carolina is not a state adverse to electing Democrats...the current Dem governor defeated a Republican incumbent - and that was in a Republican-leaning year for the state...so an underfunded candidate not able to run a full campaign or respond to attacks is certainly not going to be a position to win.
