Current North Carolina Lieutenant Governor Mark Robinson is the Republican candidate for governor. If elected, he would be the state's first Black governor.

Robinson's campaign has not responded to WUNC's requests for an interview. Instead of a conversation, we profile his political career and tumultuous campaign season.
