2024 North Carolina gubernatorial election
The 2024 North Carolina gubernatorial election was held on November 5, 2024, to elect the governor of North Carolina . Democratic state attorney general Josh Stein won his first term in office, defeating Republican lieutenant governor Mark Robinson to succeed Democratic incumbent Roy Cooper , who was term-limited.
Primary elections took place on March 5, 2024.[ 1] Stein won the Democratic nomination with 70% of the vote over former state Supreme Court justice Michael R. Morgan and Robinson won the Republican nomination with 65% of the vote over state treasurer Dale Folwell .
The race was initially competitive, with Stein holding a narrow lead in part due to Robinson's history of controversial statements. After Robinson was linked to disturbing comments on a pornographic website less than two months before the election, Stein gained a significant polling advantage that held for the remainder of the race. Stein went on to win the election by 14.8%, the largest margin for a gubernatorial candidate in North Carolina since Jim Hunt in 1980 .
Stein received more than three million votes, the most of any candidate in the history of statewide elections in North Carolina. He will also be the first Jewish governor of the state.[ 2] Analysts have credited Stein's large margin of victory with helping down-ballot Democrats in concurrent elections .[ 3] [ 4]
Robinson's 40.08% is the worst showing for any Republican nominee since 1980 .
Background
A typical swing state , North Carolina is considered to be a purple to slightly red southern state at the federal level. Both U.S. senators from the state are members of the Republican Party . Democrats and Republicans both hold multiple statewide offices in North Carolina. In the 2020 presidential election , Donald Trump carried North Carolina by 1.34 percentage points, the smallest margin among the states he won.[ 5] [ 6]
Incumbent Roy Cooper was first elected in 2016 , defeating then-incumbent governor Pat McCrory by about 0.2 points. Cooper was re-elected in 2020 by 4.5 percentage points.[ 6] [ 7]
The Democratic nominee is Josh Stein , the current state attorney general. The Republican nominee is Mark Robinson , the current lieutenant governor.[ 8]
The 2024 election was initially expected to be competitive due to the state's nearly even to slightly right-leaning partisan lean, the concurrent presidential election, and the seat being open due to term limits. However, Robinson had become embroiled in numerous controversies since becoming the nominee, allowing Stein to open up a large and consistent lead in polls.[ 9]

Stein and Robinson faced each other in the general election. With the backing of former President Donald Trump , Robinson has received heavy criticism from Democrats over statements on abortion rights, LGBTQ rights, and education. Robinson has also made a series of controversial statements before and after taking public office, including engaging in Holocaust denial .[ 65] Robinson has also received criticism from some moderate Republicans, including Senator Thom Tillis and primary opponent Dale Folwell , both of whom declined to endorse Robinson.[ 66] On September 17, Stein refused any potential debates with Robinson following a challenge from him.[ 67]
Calls for Robinson to drop out
On September 19, CNN released a story detailing racist , antisemitic , misogynistic , and other "disturbing comments" made by an account suspected to be Robinson on a pornography website between 2008 and 2012.[ 68] [ 69] Hours later, CNN specified multiple comments made on pornography website message boards, including Robinson calling himself a "black NAZI " and expressing support for reinstating slavery .[ 70] The Carolina Journal had reported that earlier in the week the Trump–Vance campaign privately told Robinson that he was not welcome at rallies for Donald Trump or JD Vance .[ 71] This occurred on the same day as the filing deadline for North Carolina's 2024 election ballots. Before the story was released, Robinson released a video dismissing the report as "tabloid lies" and saying that he would not drop out of the race.[ 72] His campaign canceled events in Henderson and Norlina planned for the same day. Republican state senate nominee Scott Lassiter was the first on the ballot with Robinson to call for him to "step aside".[ 69] Republican North Carolina senator Ted Budd said, "the allegations are concerning but we don't have any facts".[ 73] That afternoon, Politico reported that an email address belonging to Robinson was registered on Ashley Madison , a website designed for people seeking affairs while married.[ 74] The deadline for Robinson to withdraw from the race or be removed from the ballot passed on the morning of September 20.[ 75]
Following CNN's September report, most forecasters moved the race to 'Likely Democratic', while Elections Daily moved the race to Safe Democratic.[ 76] [ 9] [ 77] [ 78]
