After a media frenzy over a CNN report claiming Mark Robinson called himself a 'black Nazi,' the Lt. Gov. says he will stay in NC governor race.

The embattled GOP nominee for North Carolina governor told supporters at Fayetteville Motor Speedway that "we're going to focus on the issues."

The party is prohibited from selecting a replacement who already ran in the same race in this year’s primary. That means State Treasurer Dale Folwell and attorney Bill Graham would not be allowed to replace Robinson.
