The Raleigh News & Observer reports:
In the governor’s race newsletter two weeks ago, I wrote that I had asked both House Speaker Tim Moore and Senate leader Phil Berger if they maintained their endorsement of Robinson in the wake of the CNN report fallout.
Moore said he maintains his endorsement and noted that Robinson denied the allegations and sued over it. At the time, Berger wanted to focus on talking about the first Helene relief bill and told me to ask him again later. So I did. Berger told me on Thursday that he voted for Robinson and still supports him.
Berger said the last time I asked, it was “just a little bit too soon after the recovery to inject something else. But I voted for the lieutenant governor. I continue to support him. Nothing has changed, as far as I’m concerned, with reference to that.”

NEW >> JD Vance gives a shout out to Mark Robinson in North Carolina.
“I want to give a shout out, you guys have a great Lieutenant Governor… *long pause* S-s-sorry. *pause* Sorry, Mark isn’t here”
