PPP has NC going for Obama or tied in all 16 polls but one since november and

[musicblind]

with the sentiment in this state, from what I've seen... I think Obama is going to take NC.

Plus, having the convention here is going to help a lot.

PPP has been very accurate, especially in predicting North Carolina, as they are headquartered in Raleigh, NC.

PPP has been described as one of THE MOST ACCURATE pollsters by The Wall Street Journal, Pollster.com, and The Huffington Post.


With 16 polls and running... it looks like Obama will take NC according to the very reputable, NC Based, Public Policy Polling.


Just wanted to point that out for people who feel he has no chance here. <3

1. Its a bit early to think about polls, imo,

but good to hear you think so.
Wonder about effect on Dems of convention/non-union/OWS. Hope Dems don't shoot themselves in the foot, as has occurred in the past.

2. Thank you! I've seen so many posters on DU say that Obama couldn't

win NC and VA this time and yet most of the polling has him tied or ahead in those states and has for months.

Let's click on their home page and see if we can see any clues.

6. More affirmation instead of information for the right wing!

7. All of their polls for all of the races are that way. It's to the point of ignoring them.

And I rarely ignore a poll, but when they are so conservative they can't agree with politico, rasmussen, the wall street journal or even the drudge report... they need to take a long hard look in the mirror.

Google Civitas and polling bias.

I don't know why RCP includes them.
