Jennifer Balkcom: July 2020: Robinson Said “There Is No Compromise On Abortion,” And Advocated For A Complete Ban With No Exceptions

January 2024: CNN Reported Robinson Said Banning Abortion Was His Top Priority, Advocating For A Complete Ban Without Exceptions. “North Carolina Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson, the state’s second highest-ranking elected official and its leading Republican candidate for governor in 2024, once hailed banning abortion as his top priority, advocating for its complete ban without exceptions. ‘For me, there is no compromise on abortion. It makes no difference to me why or how that child ended up in that womb,’ he said in July 2020 while campaigning for lieutenant governor. At the time, Robinson was a political newcomer, having built his campaign off his work as a conservative influencer espousing support for gun rights, law enforcement and ‘protecting the life of the unborn.’” [CNN, 1/17/24]
