The hits just keep on coming from Fox News’ latest polls. Now, North Carolina:
Voters divide over the job Republican Thom Tillis is doing as senator: 44 percent approve and 40 percent disapprove. Sixteen percent are unsure, including 13 percent of Republicans.
Tillis won the seat in 2014 with 48.8 percent, defeating Democratic incumbent Kay Hagan by less than 2 points.
Currently, Tillis is 2 points behind Democratic challenger Cal Cunningham, 39-37 percent. Six percent of voters back a third-party candidate and another 15 percent are undecided.
The candidates are on par when it comes to party loyalty, as 77 percent of Republicans back Tillis and 77 percent of Democrats support Cunningham. Independents prefer Cunningham by a 30-16 percent margin, but a 39-percent plurality is undecided and 11 percent back someone else.
It could hurt Tillis that 54 percent of voters who are undecided in the Senate race disapprove of Trump.
Conducted June 20-23 2020 under the joint direction of Beacon Research (D) and Shaw & Company (R), this Fox News Poll includes interviews with 1,012 North Carolina voters, randomly selected from a statewide voter file, who spoke with live interviewers on landlines and cellphones. The poll has a margin of sampling error of plus or minus three percentage points for all registered voters.
Same poll has Biden beating Trump 47-45. A lot of polling out of North Carolina today:
