The Fox News Decision Desk projects North Carolina Attorney General Josh Stein will win the state's high-stakes gubernatorial election over Republican Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson.

North Carolina Attorney General Josh Stein, a Democrat, and Republican Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson sought the governorship after Roy Cooper was term-limited.

Mr. Stein’s campaign focused on education and abortion rights. But the core of his message was that Mr. Robinson, the Republican, was unfit to lead the state.
