Regardless of the specifics, I do not think that Mark Robinson's colossal ego will allow him to drop out. And if he doesn't choose to do that, the NCGOP do not really have any good options for forcing him out.

An interesting effect of WA's top-two open primaries is that the WA GOP could pass up a viable candidate for governor to endorse a more-MAGA clown, and still have a Republican in the general election after the clown got his predictable shellacking in the primary. The guy they passed up survived the primary and is running as a Republican, no hard feelings I guess.
I like top-two primaries in general, but this one seems to have enabled irresponsible behavior.
