North Carolina GOP gubernatorial nominee Mark Robinson is encountering a significant setback in his campaign as national Republicans have decided to withdraw key outside support. The Republican Governors Association (RGA) has announced that they will not be making any further placements to support the scandal-plagued candidate after their current media buy expires.
The RGA and its affiliated PAC had already spent close to $16 million on the North Carolina governor's race, making it one of the most fiercely contested gubernatorial races of the year. However, with the RGA pulling out of the race, the financial disparity between Democrats and Republicans is expected to widen in the final weeks leading up to the election.
