PPP NC Poll: North Carolina Looking Good for Democrats in Fall

both Clinton and Sanders have leads against Trump and Cruz. That would be a tough pill to swallow for Republicans. The Senate seat may also be in play especially if Trump was nominated


It looks like Republicans are going to nominate either Donald Trump or Ted Cruz
though, and they both trail the Democratic candidates by small margins. Clinton
leads Trump 44/42, and Sanders has a 48/41 advantage over him. While 81-82%
of Republicans would support Cruz or Kasich over Clinton, only 73% say they
would vote for Trump. He has a 31/58 favorability rating in the state, and his
unpopularity is such that 15-18% of voters- including 22-25% of Republicans- say
they would vote for a conservative independent candidate if he was the nominee
and that was an option for them. Clinton and Sanders each lead Cruz by identical
45/42 spreads.
