Former President Donald Trump holds a slight lead over Vice President Kamala Harris in a recent poll of North Carolina voters, signaling a competitive race in this crucial swing state.
Key Facts:
– Trump leads Harris 48.9% to 45.9% in an American Greatness/TIPP poll of North Carolina voters.
– The survey included 1,037 registered voters with a margin of error of +/- 3.2%.
– Among independent voters, Trump holds a 46% to 41% advantage over Harris.
– Economy and inflation are the top concerns, identified by 67% of respondents.
– In the governor’s race, Democrat Josh Stein leads Republican Mark Robinson 50% to 34%.
The Rest of The Story:
The poll, conducted by American Greatness/TIPP and the TechnoMetrica Institute of Policy and Politics, surveyed North Carolina voters between September 11 and 13. Despite a recent debate between Harris and Trump—which some pundits say Harris won—the poll indicates that Trump maintains a steady lead in the state. “Trump looks solid in North Carolina,” noted pollster Raghavan Mayur, president of TechnoMetrica Market Intelligence. “He is breaking out as the voting begins.”
Independent voters appear to be leaning towards Trump, giving him a 5% edge over Harris. This shift may be influenced by voters’ concerns over key issues. The economy and inflation are at the forefront, with 67% of respondents listing them as a top concern. Specifically, 86% are worried about rising food prices. Immigration and border security also rank high, cited by 46% as a major issue, followed by health care at 33%.
As North Carolina prepares to mail out ballots—overseas ballots started on September 20, and others on September 24—the political landscape is heating up. In the governor’s race, Democrat Attorney General Josh Stein holds a significant lead over Republican Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson, suggesting a potential shift in state leadership.

Many Americans are feeling the pinch of rising food prices and are concerned about border security. It’s unacceptable that these pressing matters seem to take a back seat while citizens grapple with everyday challenges.
The Biden-Harris administration bears responsibility for these shortcomings. Prioritizing policies that don’t address the immediate needs of citizens is a disservice to the nation.
Voters have the power to demand change. It’s time to consider new leadership that puts Americans first and addresses the core issues affecting our daily lives.
The Bottom Line:
North Carolina remains a pivotal battleground with voters deeply concerned about economic and security issues.
