Raleigh, N.C. — An NBC News - Wall Street Journal poll conducted by the Marist Institute shows Democrats Hillary Clinton, Deborah Ross and Roy Cooper leading their races for the state's presidential electors, U.S. Senate and governor, making it one of the most favorable such surveys of registered voters issued this summer.

Realize this is an NBC (nobody but Clinton) / WSJ poll and it is a downer, but if true, and if it holds, this could be devastating to NC and to Donald Trump. NC is an important swing state. HB2 is a big issue (transgender bathroom law) in NC this year. Voter ID law was just overturned (but is under appeal supposedly to the US Supreme Court). Vote Fraud is alive and well in NC. Get out the vote in NC is essential!

Let it be noted that WRAL-TV (NBC Raleigh affiliate) has become extremely liberal in its news coverage. It’s competitor, WTVD-11 (ABC Durham affiliate), has no such poll listed in its headlines.

The MSM, Dems and GOPe in full BS mode to convince you that the old hag is trouncing Trump.

She isn’t and it is all a big depress the vote for Trump campaign.

I just heard that scum Steve Hayes on FOX trying to convince us the drag is a the top of the GOP ticket. That sleazy old hag is not gonna win unless they cheat her in. BS again. As a result of this attitude, I will only vote for the top of the ticket and Governor of Indiana this election. Any RINOs will not get a vote from me.

My mindset is accept the poll numbers as gospel and fight harder. I love that Trump is going to CT. Stop letting the msm tell us what states he can and can’t win. Go Trump!!

It’s a poll of registered voters, not likely voters.

Did it include Johnson and Stein? I didn’t see that mentioned. Hillary’s numbers drop and Trump moves up when it’s a 4 way poll.

So how did Marist do with its polling in 2012? It was in 12th place, based on its poll results published 21 days before the election. Of the firms ranked in the top 10 in 2012, 5 haven't even published any election polling yet.

I don't dismiss anything, no matter how crazy, but isn't early August a tad early to be doing state polls? I don't remember this happening before.

And everyone realizes that Trump has spent $0 on TV ads so far?

I would dismiss these polls are fraud polls, but the other parts of your posting is very much is true.

What proves the polls to be WRONG is take a look at the rallies Mr. Trump and Gov. Pence have produced. A LOT of people there. Folks have had it.

The only way Hillary could get in is MASSIVE VOTER FRAUD.

This state is a curiosity. 1 in 10 voters lived somewhere else 4 years ago, I read somewhere. Due to the Tech Boom in the Triangle. In my mind’s eye I see problems. The election monitors will have a large percentage of faces they don’t know from down the block. High density Rat precincts will be playing Philly tricks with 110% turnout, zero GOP votes, last minute absentee ballots from the trunk.

They have been getting away with this in Philly for decades. Part of the reason is that the million man deer hunter part of the state whose blood would boil if the media were to cover this fraud are hundreds of miles away at the far end of the state. Plus any incursion into Philly’s favelas would be met with stiff, armed and organized resistance.

Part of the reason CW II has not blossomed into armed conflict is the above and outside of these targets there is just no identifiable targets. Our enemy successfully emulates smoke. The situation in North Carolina is different. Those Tarheel boys live a stone’s throw from the snowflakes in the Triangle region. So the situation is a bit more volatile. The Patriots in North Carolina have a “tradition” of sorts that is a bit more responsive to provocation than Pennsylvania’s deer hunters. The offenders are not far away and inaccessible and the offenders are not well armed and used to violence.

I am very concerned that a violent revolt will come if there is another stolen election.

As I have outlined, North Carolina could be a dangerous place for Rat shenanigans. Concentrated, well defined, vulnerable targets. Bad nexus of vulnerabilities for the Rats but they can’t afford to take the chance of losing and play NC straight. It is like watching to trains on the same track. They haven’t wrecked yet but the coming collision is unavoidable.

Asheville, Raleigh-Durham, and Charlotte are as left wing as any cities in the Northeast. The major newspapers and electronic media outlets are all very liberal.

If Trump manages a victory in NC against the vicious media onslaught and the leftist voter fraud machine, it will be by the slimmest of margins.

I visited the small town of Hot Springs NC this week. The town is the interface between the conservative mountain natives and the tourist and refugee leftists.

There were stickers “No Frackin Way” posted up here and there

I came up with a new tag line in response

Regarding Raleigh Durham....... The are is filled with refugees that fled Maryland.

Is the election today?

You can’t believe any polls showing Hillary leading/winning, They are RIGGED. The only polls that you should believe are the ones positive for Trump because they couldn’t rig them or didn’t get around to it.

Don’t look for a sarc tag because I am 100% series.

Thanks to hacked emails, we now KNOW that the media is colluding with the DNC and Hillary campaign. We also KNOW that the media are colluding with each other to defeat Trump. So why in the world would you believe their rigged polls?

All this colluding, at this level, has not been done before. Comparing the veracity of polls in the past to today’s polls is folly. It is what the media is counting on. (Thanks for helping them with that, RUSH!)

Speaking of Rush.... Don’t be fooled. Rush is trying to pretend to support Trump now that he is the nominee. BUT he is supporting him the same way Paul Ryan is supporting him.

Rush is bought and paid for by GOPE types and #neverTrump types. He is a FRAUD! FURL! I love it! It makes a word furl.

FWIW, I don't place a lot of stock in these BS polls from liberally influenced sources. NC has it's "occupied territories". Charlotte, Raleigh, Greensboro and Asheville. The rest is pretty rural. In my own little corner I see wayyyy more Trump stickers than Hillary. With the Hillary supporters seeming to be either very old or 20-somethings.

Politics are not uncommon to conversation down this way. I have yet to hear anyone publicly support the Hildebeast. d:^)

Morn fellow tarheeler,,,, I’m from Brunswick county and as far as I’m aware, NOBODY down here has received any calls for polling purposes. This particular poll I believe is bogus. The one thing I know is that there are a lot of gun toting conservatives in this area. Clinton is hated down here in this neck of NC.

Yep they flee the north, then come here and say”let’s have crappy government here too!” Job creation ain’t all its cracked up to be. Just give my town a burger joint and Walmart and I’m happy.
