*NEW* NC Poll - Matchup Vs Trump: Biden (+5); Sanders (+3); Warren (+3); Harris (--)

Raleigh, N.C. – PPP's newest North Carolina poll finds that Donald Trump continues to be unpopular and that voters in the state are evenly divided on the question of impeaching him.

46% of voters approve of the job Trump is doing to 51% who disapprove of him, in a state that he took by 4 points in 2016. 48% of voters support impeaching Trump, with an equal 48% opposed. At this point disapproval for Trump and support for impeaching Trump have become almost the same thing- only 7% of voters who disapprove of Trump are opposed to impeaching him.

We tested the 5 leading Democratic candidates in head to heads with Trump and he trails 3 of them, while it's very close against the other two. Joe Biden has a 5 point advantage at 51-46, Elizabeth Warren has a 3 point advantage at 49-46, and Bernie Sanders is up 5047. Trump and Kamala Harris tie at 47, and Trump has a slight advantage over Pete Buttigieg at 47-46. It's notable that regardless of the Democrat he's tested against, Trump always polls at 46-47% in North Carolina.

But it seems we are back to judging our candidates by how much they’ve collected.

Despite all the other “stuff” Joe Biden remains the most qualified and well liked both nationally and globally.

Biden is +5% versus Trump, Warren and Sanders are +3% versus Trump. There is only a 2% difference between their performance, hence the statistical tie.

Margin of error is 3.2%.
