I looked into the details of the latest Emerson poll and found the results to be very good for TRUMP. The enthusiasm gap between the candidates is real, and this is a consistent theme in almost every swing state poll I look at.

- Of those saying they'll vote Biden, 18.1% are "Very Excited" to vote for him while 35.4% of TRUMP voters are "Very Excited" to vote for TRUMP

- If you add in the 3 "Excited" responses - Extremely, Very or Mildly, TRUMP beats Biden 93.8% vs. 85.8% (perhaps the most important aspect of this entire poll)

- 48.2% of respondents approve of TRUMP's job performance vs. 46.7% who disapprove

Of note - Sample was D+6, Female +6 and 33.8% of respondents were Unaffiliated with either party

I'm not either, but NC actually looks to be one of the tougher swing states for him this election cycle (unlike GA which is Democratic fools' gold). With that said, the path becomes very difficult without NC because then he needs 2 Midwestern states or NV + Michigan.

Yep, that will help to suppress Dem turn out.

Increased Trump turn out and suppressed Dem turn out equals a bigger win this time than the last election.

Unaffiliated voters break for Thom Tillis over Cunningham 48% to 43% and Cunningham was up 6 in the last poll conducted in September. 38.3% of respondents said Cunningham's affair made it less likely they will vote for him.

Tillis wins that race.

In the race for U.S. Senate, Democrat Cal Cunningham polled statistically even with incumbent Republican Thom Tillis, 45% to 44%. 12% of likely voters polled remain undecided at this time. Unaffiliated voters are breaking for Tillis, 48% to 43%. The race tightened since September, when Cunningham led by 6 points.

I can count the amount of Biden support I've seen on one hand.

Although I live in the outskirts of the city, there really seems to be no buzz at all around here for Biden.

Its the suburban vote that is the problem for Trump but I think as more and more comes out on Hunter's laptop it will force many of those to vote for a 3rd party rather than vote for Trump or Biden or they just won't vote at all. The laptop is the ultimate in suppression tools for Biden and at the same time it rejuvenates the Trump base. I'm still more concerned about losing Georgia right now than North Carolina.

I will never understand this. Suburban = working class. Do that many working class people want to pay higher taxes? WTF?

NORTH CAROLINA

First day in person early votes in. Bad news for Republicans:

(MAIL CUME): 556K, 50-18% Dem/Rep
(IN PERSON): 333K, 48-27% Dem/Rep

In other words, I'd have expected the in person voters to either be 50/50 Dem/Rep or with a GOP edge.

Granted, this is ONE day, but 19% of the 2016 vote is already in, and Dems have a 49-22% headstart in a state that is 36-30% Dem/Rep by voter registrat https://twitter.com/WinWithJMC/status/1317037624670957569ion

If those numbers were reversed, you'd be on here screaming "LANDSLIDE"

Trump will win NC by as much, if not more, than he did in '16. Tillis will hang on and win by a percent or two.
