Washington, DC – The Democratic Attorneys General Association (DAGA) is thrilled to congratulate North Carolina Governor-elect and current Attorney General Josh Stein on his victory tonight over far-right extremist Mark Robinson. Since taking office as Attorney General in 2017, Stein has delivered win after win to his constituents. As Governor, Stein will continue to build on his work of fighting for all North Carolinians.

 Statement from Sean Rankin, President of Democratic Attorneys General Association: 

“We congratulate Governor-elect Josh Stein on his win. As Attorney General, Stein has worked tirelessly to advocate on behalf of all North Carolinians, hold the powerful accountable, and protect fundamental rights and freedoms. From ending the backlog of untested rape kits and delivering justice for victims to drafting and helping pass the SAFE Child Act to keep kids safe, Stein has never backed down from a tough fight and always puts his constituents first. And we know that he will continue to bring that same energy and integrity to the Governor’s office.

“Thank you, Josh, for your partnership over the past eight years and for your contributions to DAGA. I look forward to seeing everything that you will accomplish as Governor, and remember that you will always be a part of the DAGA family.”
