The Presidential race in North Carolina is about as tight as it can be, and it's also becoming increasingly clear who will end up deciding the winner in the state: voters who would like to continue the direction of President Obama's leadership, but who also strongly dislike Hillary Clinton.
Donald Trump leads the race in the state with 45% to 43% for Hillary Clinton and 6% for Gary Johnson. But when Johnson voters and undecideds are asked who they would pick if they had to choose between Clinton and Trump, the contest moves into a tie at 47%.

NC is going Trump.
D+10
D 43
R 33
I 24
Yet Fox News keeps on showing polls with Trump losing NC and FL..they are SO in the tank for Hillary Clinton
Libspeak: Trump +2=tie
Tie=Cankles leads
A Dem in the White House is good for Fox ratings!
any idea what the spread was in 2012 and 2008?
North Carolina party breakdown is within 2%, with the GOP holding the advantage; so the poll gives the Beast a 12 point bump. It would seem, according to this poll, that Trump has a 5-8 point advantage.

Exit polls in 2012 were D 39/R 33/I 29, but 2016 IS NOT 2012 for so many reasons and it’s why all the polls are so screwed up. This poll went even further and added even more D than 2012.
found this link interesting...as per their records there were 800000+ more rats than Republicans in NC in 2012....this year that number is 600000; seems the GOP number remained steady but the rats have 200000 less:

D+6 in 2012 with Obama.
They also shorted the indies by about 5 from exit polls where Romney won by nearly 20 points.
In reality, if you use 2012 demo Trump is up about 7 points.
It’s the 2016 version of Zogby’s secret sauce. Monmouth is cooking with it, too, as evidenced by their just-released New Hampshire and Florida polls. Throw more Dims in the sample to achieve desired results and calm the base, ahead of the first debate.
If you want a more accurate gauge of how the race is trending, check out Larry Sabato’s appearance on “The Kelly File” last night. Just two weeks ago, the eminent professor declared that Trump had only the narrowest chance of winning, and the race was all-but-over. Last night, he was forced to admit that his “model” has radically changed, with Trump now ahead or even with Hillary in the most important battleground states.
Sabato looked like he was weaned on a dill pickle, to borrow a phrase from Alice Roosevelt Longworth. He did not enjoy delivering that news.
Yep.
Still trying to get up to date NC voter registration info.
A Trump in the White House is good for ratings. Never a slow news day!
But it’s not about ratings but privilege and access for the globalist crowd.
