NC-SEN: Polls show Cooper with strong lead over Whatley for NC Senate seat
Democrat Roy Cooper has an 11-point lead over Republican Michael Whatley in the Senate race in North Carolina, according to a new poll from the Carolina Journal/Harper Polling.
The survey, released last week, found that nearly half of 600 likely voters in North Carolina said they would either “definitely” or “probably” back Cooper, the former two-term governor of the state, if the election were held that day.
Less than 39 percent of respondents, meanwhile, said they would “definitely” or “probably” support Whatley, who spent nearly a year and a half as chair of the Republican National Committee before leaving last August to run for Senate.
Less than 4 percent of respondents said they would vote for someone else, and 7.8 percent said they were unsure.
