Attorney General Josh Stein, the Democratic nominee for governor of North Carolina, recently discussed the issue of anti-Semitism in the upcoming election. If elected, Stein would become North Carolina's first Jewish governor. His opponent, Lieutenant Governor Robinson, has a troubling history of making anti-Semitic comments, including quoting Hitler favorably, endorsing conspiracy theories about the Rothschilds, and posting derogatory remarks about Jewish people on social media.
When asked about Robinson's behavior, Stein expressed concern about the Lieutenant Governor's hateful rhetoric towards various groups, not just Jewish people. He emphasized that such divisiveness and intolerance have no place in public office. Stein highlighted the diversity of North Carolina's population, with 10.8 million residents representing a wide range of backgrounds and identities.
