NC Sen Poll: Dems Can't Catch Up
Posted by Kyle Trygstad | Email This | Permalink | Email Author
What was once thought to be a Democratic pick-up opportunity now continues to look like anything but. A new Rasmussen poll (April 19, 500 LV, MoE +/- 4.5%) finds North Carolina Sen. Richard Burr (R) polling above 50% for the third straight month and leading both top Democratic challengers by around 20 points.
Both Democrats, Secretary of State Elaine Marshall and national party-backed Cal Cunningham, are stuck in the low 30s.
Burr 50 (-1 vs. last poll, March 22)
Marshall 32 (-3)
Und 12
Burr 53 (+2)
Cunningham 31 (-1)
Und 13
RCP currently ranks the race as Lean Republican.
