PPP: Romney Leads Obama In North Carolina, 48% to 46%

Democratic polling firm Public Policy Polling has Romney beating Obama in North Carolina right now, 48 to 46. And here’s a fascinating point about Romney’s strength with North Carolina independents and Democrats.

Romney’s gained 7 points on Obama in North Carolina since April, when the President led by a 49-44 margin. Since then Romney’s erased what was a 51-38 lead for Obama with independents and taken a 42-41 lead with that voting group. He’s also increased his share of the Democratic vote from 15% to 20%, suggesting he’s convincing some more conservative voters within the party to cross over.

Policies have consequences.
