Democratic challenger Roy Cooper holds a slight lead over Pat McCrory in the race for North Carolina governor, according to an upcoming Public Policy Polling survey. Tuesday afternoon, Public Policy Polling director Tom Jensen revealed the new data to WCHL’s Aaron Keck.

Cooper leads McCrory by one point. Cooper, the current North Carolina Attorney General, received 43 percent in the new survey. Incumbent Governor McCrory received 42 percent. Libertarian challenger Lon Cecil received 4 percent of responses.

The race for North Carolina governor has been close for months. In a June Public Policy Polling survey, Cooper and McCrory were tied at 41 percent.

Listen to Jensen’s conversation with Aaron Keck on WCHL.

HB2 appears to be impacting McCrory. Only 30 percent of North Carolina voters support the controversial law while 43 oppose it. Forty-three percent of North Carolinians approve of McCrory’s job as governor while 47 percent disapprove.

In the race for one of North Carolina’s seats in the United States Senate, Republican incumbent Richard Burr holds a four point lead over Democratic challenger Deborah Ross. In the poll, Burr receives 41 percent and Ross gets 37 percent. Libertarian Sean Haugh is getting 5 percent.

Public Policy Polling released a survey Tuesday on how the presidential election is looking in North Carolina. In that poll, Hillary Clinton holds a small lead over Donald Trump, 43 percent to 41 percent. It is Clinton’s first lead in the state since March.

Jensen says, “It’s hard to imagine there’s any state in the country this year that is more closely divided as North Carolina.”
