Inside a Josh Stein Ad Blasting Mark Robinson as ‘Unfit’ for North Carolina Governor

In the world of political advertising, negative ads are nothing new. But when North Carolina Attorney General Josh Stein released an ad blasting Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson as ‘unfit’ for governor, it sparked a firestorm of controversy.

The ad, titled “Unfit,” features clips of Robinson making controversial statements on topics such as LGBTQ rights, abortion, and gun control. It also highlights Robinson’s lack of political experience, contrasting it with Stein’s record as a seasoned public servant.

In a statement accompanying the ad, Stein said, “Mark Robinson is unfit to be governor of North Carolina. His extreme views and lack of experience make him a dangerous choice for our state. We need a leader who will represent all North Carolinians, not just a select few.”

Robinson, a rising star in the Republican party, quickly fired back, calling the ad a desperate attempt by Stein to distract from his own record of failure. He accused Stein of trying to divide the state with ‘divisive rhetoric’ and vowed to continue fighting for the values of freedom and opportunity.

The ad has sparked a debate among North Carolina voters, with some praising Stein for shining a light on Robinson’s controversial statements and lack of political experience, while others criticize the ad as a smear campaign designed to discredit Robinson.

Regardless of where one stands on the issue, it is clear that the race for North Carolina governor is heating up. With both candidates taking shots at each other in their advertising, voters will have to sift through the noise to determine who is truly the best candidate to lead the state.

As the election draws nearer, it will be interesting to see how the candidates continue to engage with each other and with the voters. One thing is for certain – the battle for the governor’s mansion in North Carolina is far from over.
