Republican Lieutenant Governor Mark Robinson, the frontrunner for North Carolina's governor's race, has seemingly undergone a shift in his stance on abortion. Previous recordings reveal Robinson's unwavering support for strict abortion bans without exceptions, likening the act to murder and drawing comparisons to slavery and genocide. However, an investigative team recently discovered that Robinson now avoids mentioning the word 'abortion' altogether.
The change in rhetoric seems to stem from the Republican Party's recognition that the issue of abortion has become a losing battle for them. Robinson himself has expressed a reluctance to discuss the topic further. Nevertheless, evidence shows that he had previously voiced support for stringent anti-abortion laws, specifically those lacking exceptions for cases of rape or incest.
