North Carolina Democratic Attorney General Josh Stein declined to debate Republican Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson as the Republican faces scrutiny over salacious comments he allegedly posted online. Stein and Robinson are engaged in a battle to become North Carolina’s next governor this fall.

One North Carolina gubernatorial candidate calls himself a "Black Nazi." The other belongs to a local synagogue.

Following Thursday’s reports of controversial online comments that Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson made in years before he took office, Democratic Attorney General Josh Stein on Friday called the North Carolina Republican gubernatorial nominee “unfit” and “unqualified” to lead the state.
