Catawba College Political Science Professor Michael Bitzer joined Jeff Hamlin on the WPTF Afternoon News to discuss the controversy surrounding North Carolina Lieutenant Governor Mark Robinson's gubernatorial campaign. Robinson announced his decision to stay in the race despite a damning CNN report revealing inflammatory comments he made on a pornography website over a decade ago, including a reference to himself as a "black Nazi." Bitzer analyzed the potential impact of this scandal on Robinson’s campaign, its effect on North Carolina’s Republican ticket, and the broader political landscape, especially for independent voters.
