The Battleground 2024: North Carolina

In North Carolina, former President Donald Trump edges President Joe Biden by three percentage points among, both, the statewide electorate and those who say they definitely plan to vote in November. Although he is yet to qualify to be on the November ballot in the state, when Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is factored in as a third-party candidate, he pulls double-digit support but has little impact on the margin between Trump and Biden. In North Carolina’s governor’s race, only two percentage points separate Democrat Josh Stein and Republican Mark Robinson.
