Sen. Richard Burr (R-NC) holds a six-point lead in a Quinnipiac poll of the U.S. Senate race in North Carolina, distancing his lead over Democratic challenger Deborah Ross.
Burr leads the latest poll of likely North Carolina voters, 49-43.
Suffolk University released a poll yesterday showing Burr with a four-point advantage, 44-39, over Ross, a former democratic state representative. Ross had previously held a lead in a CBS/YouGov poll released early this month.
The Quinnipiac poll was conducted Aug. 29-Sept. 7 via live telephone interview among 751 likely North Carolina voters. The poll has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.6 percent.
TPM’s PollTracker Average for North Carolina shows Burr leading Ross, 43.6 to 39.4.
I haven’t seen a lick of Senate campaign advertising here yet. Maybe someone else has.
