Vice President Harris and former President Trump are tied in the battleground state of North Carolina, according to a CNN poll released Friday.
Both Trump and Harris had 48 percent support among likely voters in the Tar Heel State, according to the poll.
Nine in 10 likely voters said their minds had been made up, with only 10 percent saying they might change their minds.
The poll found the most important issue for voters in North Carolina was the economy, at 37 percent. That was followed by protecting democracy at 27 percent. Twelve percent of respondents said separately abortion or immigration was the most pressing issue.
North Carolina’s voters had more trust in the former president on the economy, at 49 percent to Harris’s 41 percent, and on immigration, at 49 percent to 38 percent. But voters trusted Harris more on abortion, with her getting 49 percent to Trump’s 38 percent.
The race between Harris and Trump in North Carolina has tightened.
A recent Bloomberg News/Morning Consult poll found that Harris had a 2-point lead in North Carolina, 50 percent to 48 percent. The White House contenders were tied, according to a Marist state poll that came out this week. And a poll from Elon University found that the vice president had a 1-point lead among registered voters in the Tar Heel State.
The former president has a 0.6 percentage point lead, 48.4 percent to 47.8 percent, over Harris, according to The Hill/Decision Desk HQ’s aggregate of polls.
The CNN poll was conducted Sept. 20-25 among 931 North Carolina voters. The margin of error was 3.9 percentage points.
