RALEIGH — U.S. Sen. Thom Tillis endorsed Salisbury trial attorney Bill Graham for governor over Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson in a story first reported by National Review Online.
“I intend to do everything I can to help him get the nomination,” Tillis told NR about the endorsement on Friday, Dec. 8. “I’m looking at two resumes and there’s a stark contrast in capabilities.”
Tillis and Graham share a political consultant, Paul Shumaker.
In a lengthy post on X, Robinson said in part, “Bill Graham is nothing but a pawn who’s been suckered into spending millions of his own money on a personal vendetta against me that’s being driven by consultants and a RINO senator who was censured by his own party.”
