"Mark Robinson to Face Josh Stein in North Carolina Governor's Race"

Josh Stein, the North Carolina attorney general, won the Democratic primary for governor and is set to face Republican lieutenant governor Mark Robinson in a closely watched and expensive race. Stein, endorsed by the term-limited Democratic governor, easily defeated his primary opponents and will now focus on portraying Robinson as an extreme figure while highlighting his controversial statements. The race is expected to hinge on the influx of voters in suburban and exurban areas, with both candidates aiming to appeal to these voters.
