“I’m a black NAZI!”

In his own words:
The impact:
North Carolina’s working families need leaders who will build on our successes and tackle real problems, not bigots like Mark Robinson trying to control women’s bodies and spending his free time on forums talking about how much he wants slavery back. Slavery, y’all. In the 21st century.
Mark Robinson has spent four years as Lt. Governor doing little else than spew hate to bolster his own campaign for Governor. In the last year, he’s turned the race for North Carolina’s highest office into a national embarrassment.
In his own words:
The impact:
Hal is Mark Robinson’s hand-picked partner in crime, and together they’re advancing a radical anti-woman agenda.
Hal has mocked and blamed women who survived rape and sexual assault, and calls women who have abortions “baby butchers” while likening them to Hitler and slave owners. You can read that here, by the way—but be warned: he does say the N-word.
Mark and Hal are both extreme on the issue of abortion, under their leadership NC will pass complete abortion bans with no exceptions for rape, incest, or life of the mother.
In his own words:
The impact:
Dan Bishop is an election-denying, far-right radical who is rated as the most conservative member of Congress—and whose extreme legislation cost the state of North Carolina over $3.5 billion.
This is the guy who wrote HB2, the bathroom bill, that killed basic non-discrimination protections across our state and cost North Carolina thousands of jobs and billions in investments.
Bishop is a political ally of known extremists Matt Gaetz and Lauren Boebert, who he pulls political publicity stunts with—like when they wasted a day by blocking the election of a Speaker of the House fourteen times.
In her own words:
The impact:
Michele Morrow is a QAnon conspiracy theorist who has never taught in or even worked in a North Carolina public school, but she wants to be in charge of over one million NC students.
In fact, she’s never sent her kids to a North Carolina public school either—but she did take them to the Capitol on January 6.
Not only does she not have experience in public education, she’s got it out for public school teachers and educators, calling public schools “socialism centers”, and wants cameras everywhere in schools—including kids’ bathrooms.
If that’s not bad enough, she’s called for the televised execution of President Obama and Governor Cooper, and thinks that Muslim Americans should be barred from holding office.
After Farley won the GOP primary, the North Carolina Chamber of Commerce called him out as a danger to North Carolina businesses, saying “Luke Farley is a far-right candidate whose two main campaign platform items were banning vaccine requirements for employees and ‘Making Elevators Great Again.”
You read that right—Make Elevators Great Again. It’s a real slogan of his.
Farley has decried basic worker protections, especially around disease and heat safety. He’s called heat protections for workers “climate alarmism,” making political excuses for companies to keep workers on the job without guarantees of shade or water in 100°+ heat.
Dave Boliek cares more about DEI than holding our institutions accountable. He used his position on the UNC Board of Trustees to focus in on “the culture war” at the expense of student outcomes.
He proudly supported cutting student-support jobs to win political points in a non-partisan role—and we can expect he’ll bring that same partisanship to the Office of the State Auditor.
As auditor, Boliek wants to put elections and education under his partisan microscope, inserting his office into our bi-partisan Board of Elections and trying to cut more positions from our already understaffed schools.
Chad Brown, what are you hiding?
While he was on the Gaston County Commission, his local newspaper busted the commission for covering up hundreds of thousands of dollars of workers’ compensation settlements. The commission repeatedly refused public records requests in violation of state law.
Despite the fact that North Carolina’s Secretary of State office does not administer elections, Chad has made “protecting our elections” a pillar of his campaign—alongside other things this office has no control over.
His website’s issues page mentions his religion, his anti-reproductive freedom stance, his thoughts on the 2nd Amendment, and not a damn thing about North Carolina’s small businesses.
Steve Troxler has been North Carolina’s Commissioner of Agriculture for over twenty years—and we’re losing farmland and agricultural production because he’s obsessed with tobacco instead of crops that actually make money.
North Carolina is one of only a few states that elects our Agriculture Commissioner, and Steve has used that to play politics with our farms and fight regulations that would make our air and water safer.
He’s used his position as Agriculture Commissioner to dismiss concerns about the impact climate change is having on our farms and the people that work on them.
Mike Causey has hiked up our insurance rates 16 times without a public hearing and proudly expanded a loophole that lets insurance companies charge you above the legal maximum… and that’s just what he’s done to our wallets. If you want a gut punch, you can see how much he increased your county’s rates at ratehikemike.com.
Mike was busted for giving his political buddies make-work jobs. What kind of Commissioner of Insurance needs to pay someone to drive him to New Mexico? He’s also been accused of targeting the competition of his donors’ businesses.
Mike, like his fellow Republicans on the ticket, can’t seem to log off Facebook when he’s got something nasty to say about women, especially “fat women” and Michelle Obama.
Brad has claimed, verbatim, that he wants to “diminish the power of the office” of treasurer, and he’s going to do that by handing many of the treasurer’s powers to our gerrymandered legislature. And yes, that can include decisions about the healthcare plans for state employees.
They just can’t stop.
