Mark Keith Robinson (born August 8, 1968) is the Republican nominee for governor in 2024 who has served as its 35th lieutenant governor since 2021. He is the first African-American to hold his current office, after defeating Democratic nominee Yvonne Lewis Holley in the 2020 lieutenant gubernatorial election.

Robinson is a blunt-speaking former factory worker, who became active in politics after pro-Second Amendment comments he made as an ordinary American at his hometown city council meeting went viral in 2018.

Robinson is hated by liberals and mainstream media due to being a black conservative, which threatens Dems' political strategy of obtaining 95% of blacks' votes despite imposing policies harmful the black community.

Robinson is a social conservative, which includes his opposition to same-sex marriage.
