North Carolina Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson is expected to be at Fayetteville Motor Speedway Saturday night.

He is hosting a meet-and-greet at the venue from 6 to 8 p.m., according to the venue’s Facebook page.

The Carlton Lamm Memorial Race will also be happening at the speedway. Tickets will be available for purchase at the entrance.

This will be Robinson’s first public appearance after a CNN report about his alleged posts on a pornography website’s message board. He did not appear at a rally held by former President Donald Trump in Wilmington on Saturday, and Trump did not mention him.

Robinson denied writing the posts, which include lewd and racist comments, saying Thursday that he wouldn’t be forced out of the race by “salacious tabloid lies.”
