Mark Robinson receives medical treatment for burns following campaign event mishap, campaign officials verify


Republican gubernatorial candidate Mark Robinson is being treated for burns following an incident at a campaign event in Mt. Airy. His communications director confirmed that Robinson is in good spirits despite the situation. The details surrounding the incident are unclear, but it led to the cancellation of a North Carolina Faith & Freedom event where Robinson was scheduled to speak, due to power outages caused by Hurricane Helene.

This incident comes shortly after a CNN report alleged that Robinson had made antisemitic and racist comments on a porn website years ago. Four top staff members of Robinson’s campaign resigned in the aftermath of the report, though the campaign did not directly link their departures to the allegations. Despite some Republicans expressing concern over the report, Robinson has denied the allegations and remained defiant.

The Harris campaign has been trying to associate Robinson with former President Donald Trump, who endorsed him before the CNN report was released. They hope that the controversy surrounding Robinson’s candidacy will help Democrats flip the state blue in the upcoming election. North Carolina is seen as crucial for the Republican Party to secure the White House, as Trump won the state by a narrow margin in 2020. Robinson’s candidacy has become embattled, and the outcome remains uncertain amidst the ongoing allegations and controversies.
