This pretty much confirms the early voting thus far in NC. Good stuff all around. 43D 33R sample is about right for this state. The trend is your friend. BTW, PPP shows race tied so that means we're four points ahead. I say this only because in Walker recall election, PPP had walker winning by 3 points. He won by 7. Nuff said.

How is NC even close? Is Raleigh really that liberal? Charlotte isn’t.

NC is not a D +10 please

NC is not even in play.

I am not being a partisan here. Even the democrats have conceded NC

Obama simply will not win NC this time around and the democrats already have moved on.

So, this poll means nothing, other than confirm the obvious.

This is like having a poll in CA

FWIW, I'm in NC. Lots of (D) and (R) ads this weekend during football.

I thought BO had pulled out, guess not. Maybe he's trying one more run at it.....dunno why.

Mitt wins easily, and NC elects a GOP governor to replacde that clown Bev Perdue. The REAL key races in NC are congressional, where the GOP has a really good chance to finally get rid of several Dem so called “blue dawgs”..The GOP could pick up 4 House seats in NC, which will help to balance out the redistricting the Dems pulled off in Illinois, which may cost us 4 House seats..

Fraud gave the clown president NC in 2008.

NC is in the Romney camp. Bank on it.

The only states that matter are VA, OH, FL and CO. Romney wins those 4 states, he wins presidency.

NH, WI, MI, PA, NV, etc do not matter.

Romney is tied in VA and FL. Up 1-2 in CO. And down 3-4 in OH.

That can't possibly be right. Why Chuck Todd just told me yesterday on MTP that the race was over, that Barry led in every single battleground state, including NC, by overwhelming numbers. And of course all the early voting showed how excited people were to reelect the Bambster.

I’m not buying polls that go my way, either.

In the last 10 elections, NC has gone to Republicans 8 times (80%). In 2008, McCain only lost NC by 14,000 votes.

There surely are a lot of Dems registered here but, based on the absentee votes percentages and polls like this, I believe NC is going to go Republican 9 times out of 11.

Just think of all the probably wasted millions of dollars poured into this state by the Dems and the DNC held here!
