North Carolina Republican gubernatorial candidate Mark Robinson is receiving treatment for burns following an incident at a campaign event in Mount Airy. His communications director, Mike Lonergan, confirmed the incident and stated that Robinson is in good spirits.
Republican gubernatorial candidate Mark Robinson 'is currently being treated for burns,' his communications director confirmed to NBC News on Friday night. 'Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson is currently being treated for burns following an incident at a campaign event in Mt. Airy. He is in good spirits,' said Mike Lonergan, the Robinson campaign's communications director.
Hurricane Helene wreaked havoc in parts of North Carolina, especially the western region of the state, where the event was going to be held. The incident came just days after a bombshell CNN report that alleged that the lieutenant governor made antisemitic and racist comments on a porn website years ago. In the days after the story broke, four top staff members of the embattled Republican’s campaign stepped down, though the campaign did not link the departures to the report.
