The lieutenant governor, whose office does not have any formal responsibilities for storm recovery, has opted to partner with the Franklin County Sheriff Kevin White to deliver supplies to impacted areas through private flights.

Asked whether his appearance Wednesday was official or campaign-related, he said it was a “campaign to bring relief to the people of North Carolina.” And he later said that he wasn’t attempting to be a “hero” or “big shot.”

“The only thing I’ve ever sought to do is serve the people of this state well,” Robinson said. “Going through this experience right now drives that point home, because I can guarantee you somebody out there, after all this is over, is going to look at me and say, ‘you know, you are a hero for what you did.’

“I can guarantee you someone’s going to say that, whether it’s somebody I love, a constituent, no matter who,” he added. “But I can tell you this, to quote a soldier from World War II, here in North Carolina, I am not a hero, folks. But I serve in a state full of heroes, and I have seen them over the last five days, folks
