Interesting North Carolina poll today done by Emerson, and it's not good news for Trump. It was both the primary and how the candidates fared v. Trump. It was also bad news for Pubs for governor and senator. And there were 2 other national polls showing the same as we've seen in the last few weeks - Biden in the mid 30s, Sanders in the high teens, Warren in or approaching double digits and Pete and Harris in the 7-8% range (though I find the battle state polls way more interesting).
Biden 39%, +12 v Trump
Sanders 22%, +8
Warren 15%, tie
Pete 8%, +4
Harris 5%, -2
My first thought is these numbers are way better than I would have expected. My second thought is why does it suck so much to be a woman? My third thought was that is 1 of the best numbers v. Trump for Pete that I've seen - and from a southern state. Pete hasn't been faring well v. Trump before this 1. My fourth thought is Tillis may not be as safe as I had previously thought, although this battle state poll is skewing much bluer than most.
