NC Senate race tightens up

The North Carolina Senate race has tightened up quite a bit in the last couple months, with early attacks ads on Kay Hagan and the unpopular rollout of Obamacare taking a toll on her poll numbers. Hagan is now basically tied with her Republican challengers, leading Heather Grant 43/40, Thom Tillis 44/42, and Mark Harris 43/41 while trailing Greg Brannon 44/43.

Over the last two months Hagan's approval rating is pretty consistent. It was 43% in September and it's at 44% now. But her disapproval has spiked from 39% all the way up t0 49% over that period of time. It's no coincidence that the decline in Hagan's approval numbers tracks pretty closely with a big decline in President Obama's popularity over that same period of time. He's gone from having voters in the state pretty evenly divided about him in September at 48/49 to disapproving pretty strongly at 43/53.

It seems likely that the difficulties with the rollout of Obamacare are helping to make life more difficult for Hagan. It's always been unpopular in North Carolina and currently 38% of voters say they approve of it to 48% who disapprove, numbers pretty consistent with what we've found over the years. But what's really hurting Democrats is its being back in the news- 69% of voters say its rollout has been unsuccessful so far to only 25% who deem it a success. 49% say the rollout has been 'very unsuccessful.' Republicans (87%) and independents (75%) are pretty unanimous in their sentiment that the Obamacare launch hasn't gone well but even among Democrats only 41% give it positive ratings to 52% who think it's been problematic.

He needs money, and the earlier the better.

Brannon had been sitting at 7% for the past 6 months. Looks like he went up 4 points within the last month, outstanding!

Great news! Hopefully this will encourage folks to donate.

[Bastiat's The Law]

We need more money bomb promotion guys!

[eduardo89]

Does NC have a primary run off if no candidate gets 50%?

[GunnyFreedom]

He needs money, and the earlier the better.

12/16 moneybomb!

[Bastiat's The Law]

Does NC have a primary run off if no candidate gets 50%?

Yeah.

[GunnyFreedom]

Does NC have a primary run off if no candidate gets 50%?

40%

[muzzled dogg]

Good news but need a lot of work

[Mr.NoSmile]

He needs money, and the earlier the better.

Precisely. Polling well is one thing, but when going against the Karl Rove machine, having money is definitely a plus.

I know all about going head to head with Dark Emperor Rove.

Yup, we need lots of warm bodies and campaign funds to combat the bastards.

[GregSarnowski]

Wow, pretty great speech, he comes across as a firebrand libertarian that's actually electable.

I could easily see giving the same speech at a Libertarian Party convention, but this is a RedState gathering and he's getting a great reception.

What makes our country great, is the different cultures - From Many, One. But the American culture is on top; a common language, sovereign borders, the idea of the individual always over the collective. Central planners believe that they can make the rules, live outside of them, and keep us little plebs in position. It's the other way around. And the days of this is numbered because we know the flame of liberty will never, ever, be blown out.

[JakeH]

GREAT news! Push this and the moneybomb hard on social media.

Brannon has momentum
