North Carolina Senate Polls

Trump Expresses Concern as Polls Show Roy Cooper Leading Michael Whatley in North Carolina

President Donald Trump expressed concern over Michael Whatley's campaign for the U.S. Senate in North Carolina, where polls show Democratic former Governor Roy Cooper ahead of Whatley. This comes as a major Republican-aligned political action committee, the Senate Leadership Fund, has decided to pause its remaining advertising spending in North North Carolina and redirect resources to other Senate races. Recent polling consistently shows Cooper ahead, although the size of the lead varies among pollsters. The decision reflects how Republican groups are prioritising resources among other races. Whatley is running against Cooper for the Senate seat being vacated by Republican Senator Thom Tillis and has continued to campaign in the state.
