Mark Robinson scandal breaks involving pornography message board posts as deadline to drop out of North Carolina Governor race nears.

FAYETTEVILLE, N.C. (WTVD) -- North Carolina Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson is hosting a meet-and-greet at the Fayetteville Motor Speedway Saturday night.

The event is 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 is Robinson's first public appearance after a CNN report about his alleged posts on a pornography website's message board.

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."
