This is not good. We need to retain as many conservative governors or GOP governors in red states as we can. 7 out of the last 8 gubernatorial races have turned blue.

IMHO this is more important than the GOP winning the oval office.
Republicans Get Warning Sign in State Trump WonA new poll delivered a warning sign to Republicans about their chances of winning the governorship in a state won by former President Donald Trump in 2020.
North Carolina's gubernatorial race is set to pit Democratic Attorney General Josh Stein against Republican Lieutenant Governor Mark Robinson against each other in November, making it one of 11 states holding an election for governor this year.
North Carolina is often viewed as a swing state with a slight conservative lean, as it backed Trump by 1.3 percentage points during the 2020 presidential election. It has voted for the Republican presidential candidate in 10 of the last 11 elections.
But Republicans, who are hoping to pick up the governor's seat, may be poised for a loss in the race to replace Democratic Governor Roy Cooper in November, according to a flurry of recent polls showing Stein with an edge over Robinson.
The state gains some of its swing state status due to often electing a Democratic candidate to the governor's mansion.
Seven of the last eight gubernatorial contests in the state have gone blue.https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/republicans-get-warning-sign-in-state-trump-won/ar-BB1lstdJ?ocid=hpmsn&cvid=af8906c42f90427daa419f77b17e77fb&ei=22
