New data shows that an IP address linked to a user account that left dozens of racist and disturbing comments on an online pornography forum can be traced to a location not far from the North Carolina home of Mark Robinson, the Republican candidate for state governor, further bolstering a report last week that Robinson was the person who posted about being a "black NAZI" on the site.

From the cited summary...
... Politico has obtained data that shows that the IP address listed with North Carolina Lieutenant Governor Mark Robinson's Nude Africa account is located in the Piedmont Triad region of North Carolina where he lived. ...
OK I do have an issue with this.
When I look up my current IP address on one site ( whatismyipaddress.com ), I am placed in Cambridge, Mass.
Yet on another site ( ipleak.net ), I am properly placed in Connecticut.
fwiw, that latter site, ipleak.com is, imo, a good, informative site.
YMMV and all that.
My concern, imo, IP geolocation is not yet, I'll say, worthy of court evidence.
The ISPs do not seem to be concerned in this area.
Even before this latest revelation...
GOP governors' campaign group says no more ad spending planned for Robinson in North Carolina
ncnewsline.com
... A national campaign group dedicated to electing Republican governors said Monday that it had no future advertising planned in North Carolina with just over a month remaining before Election Day.
The Republican Governors Association, which as recently as last week made a seven-figure investment attacking Democratic candidate and Attorney General Josh Stein, confirmed that "no further placements" had been made for TV or other advertising in the North Carolina race. ...
So a national Republican campaign group seems not to be in favor of an alleged nazi-supporter and sexual pervert running for office, but only if the office is a governorship?
What about the presidency?
