Republican Sen. Richard Burr fell two points behind Democratic challenger Deborah Ross in a new NBC/WSJ/Marist poll of North Carolina released Friday.
Ross overtook the incumbent Burr 46 percent to 44 percent. That marks a switch from the most recent NBC/WSJ/Marist poll of North Carolina conducted in July. which showed Burr held a seven-point lead over Ross.
In the North Carolina gubernatorial race, the latest survey showed Democratic challenger Roy Cooper widening his lead over another GOP incumbent, Pat McCrory, 51 percent to 44 percent. Cooper led McCrory by four points, 49-45, in the July NBC/WSJ/Marist poll.
The NBC/WSJ/Marist poll was conducted Aug. 4-10 among 921 registered North Carolina voters with a margin of error of plus or minus 3.2 percentage points.
Slippery slope for the tarheel GOP.
And Donnie Drumpf is the Vaseline…
It’s within the marging of error, but still good news.
It’s all about turnout folks. GOTV can be the difference in NC, AZ, and another number of other states …
You bet. Now if Trump wins, Obama only has to move as far as North Carolina!
Good riddance to both of them, especially McCrory!
