A new Public Policy Polling survey in North Carolina poll finds a steady Senate race, with Sen. Kay Hagan (D) leading challenger Thom Tillis (R) by three points, 46% to 43%.
Key takeaway: “It’s still a close race but Hagan’s lead- though small- has certainly been persistent and something dramatic may need to happen in the final two weeks to allow Tillis to come out on top.”
