Folks —
I had to make sure you saw Josh’s latest email: We officially have another opponent in the race for Governor — and he’s too dangerous for North Carolina.
Mark Robinson, North Carolina’s extremist Republican lieutenant governor, holds prejudices and promotes conspiracies that frankly disqualify him. Robinson is wrong for North Carolina.
Nonetheless, our race is set to be one of the hardest fought and most expensive in the country. Politico calls it the “most important” governor’s race in the country next year.
Right now, our TOP PRIORITY is ensuring we have the financial strength to take Robinson and the GOP on.
Josh and I set a goal to raise $24,000 in the 24 hours after Robinson’s announcement. Since Josh first emailed, [XX] supporters have stepped up to power our campaign. But we’re still short of our target!
Folks, Josh and I need your help immediately to hit our $24,000 goal. Click here to give $20.24 or an amount that’s right for you >>>

Subject: My opponent:
It’s official: Extremist Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson (R) has entered the race for Governor of North Carolina.
I won’t stand for a man who would drag us backward to become our Governor. Folks, I’m ready to fight back with everything I’ve got — but I need you with me.
Rush an immediate contribution to defeat Mark Robinson >>>
Look, you and I believe that building a brighter future is possible for North Carolina — one rooted in our shared values of freedom, justice, and opportunity for all.
Mark Robinson is wrong for North Carolina. He said women aren’t called to lead. He called LBGTQ+ people “filth.” He denied the Holocaust, climate change, and the results of the 2020 presidential election.
He even threatened to shoot government officials who “[get] too big for [their] britches” with his AR-15s.
A recent piece in the New York Times called Robinson “extremism incarnate,” a man who is “anti-gay,” “anti-science,” and “antisemitic.” He’ll strip us of our reproductive freedoms, attack our democratic values, and undo the progress we’ve made for our state.
Folks, extremists like Mark Robinson want to tell people who they can marry, when women must be pregnant, and which people we should hate. He and his radical accomplices are the greatest threat to the brighter future we seek.
Again, it’s simple — Mark Robinson is wrong for North Carolina.
The most important thing we can do for the future of North Carolina is to ensure this extremist is kept out of the Governor’s office — but he and his GOP allies have spent years preparing for this race. I’m relying on your support to take on their war chest.
I just set a goal to raise $24,000 in the next 24 hours to make sure we have the resources we need to compete. With your help, we’ll defeat Robinson and the GOP >>>
