That’s what the latest Public Policy Polling take has for Pat McCrory and Fred Smith — both with around 35 percent of the vote, both within a hair of avoiding a runoff. It’ll come down to turnout.
And here’s a thought: We — and others — have noted that moderate urban voters who might otherwise has voted for McCrory in the GOP primary might be opting for the Democrat ballot so they can vote for Obama. Well, given HRC’s recent surge and Bill Clinton’s full-force Bubba-blitz in small towns across the state, what if working-class NASCAR types who would otherwise vote for Smith opt to vote for Hillary instead?
This is gonna be one fascinating election, no doubt about it.
