Sen. Lindsey Graham expressed concern over reports that North Carolina Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson made lewd posts on a pornographic website over a decade ago, calling the charges “beyond unnerving.” Robinson has denied these allegations and vowed to stay in the race, with Graham suggesting that he should sue CNN if the claims are false. North Carolina Attorney General Josh Stein criticized Robinson, attributing his rise to Donald Trump’s support.
Graham also discussed his efforts in Nebraska to change the state’s law to allow winner-take-all Electoral College votes, mentioning the importance of this change in potentially affecting the presidency. He highlighted the support of Nebraska’s federal delegation for this change, emphasizing the need to ensure that all voters have a voice in the electoral process.
Additionally, Graham mentioned Trump’s chances in North Carolina’s Electoral College and the potential impact of Robinson’s controversy. He noted the historical success of Trump in the state despite mixed outcomes for other candidates, suggesting that the allegations against Robinson may not significantly affect Trump’s standing. Overall, Graham stressed the importance of electoral reform and ensuring fair representation for voters in both North Carolina and Nebraska.
