Former North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper (D) is maintaining his lead over former Republican National Committee (RNC) Chair Michael Whatley in the state’s Senate race, according to a new poll released Friday.
A High Point University Poll found the Democratic candidate had a 5-point advantage over his GOP opponent among likely North Carolina voters. Fifty percent of respondents backed Cooper, while 45 percent supported Whatley in the contest.
The candidates will face off in the November race to replace retiring GOP Sen. Thom Tillis. The North Carolina seat is one of the six GOP-controlled seats Democrats are hoping to flip this election cycle.

If this 5 point gap was 45-40 rather than 50-45 I would feel better about it.
Oh wow. A race that that the MSM polling says favors the Democrat. Then, as time goes on, the polling data tightens.
Such an unexpected story. Never a dull moment, with the MSM.
I agree, it is a long shot. But take a look at 2020 polling in North Carolina. Cunningham ahead of Tillis in almost every poll, and at 50% in August. Ended up losing by 2.

Cooper is hated in Western NC. However, Yankee infested Raleigh and Charlotte are hard to overcome.
I hope Whatley can pull it off...I despise Royboy.
Damn roy cooper.
Cooper - First he worked to overturning the NC Constitution on marriage. Then he was elected to let men in women’s places.
