The gubernatorial race remains neck and neck.

According to a recent poll by the conservative Civitas Institute, Democratic candidate Beverly Perdue had 43 percent support, Republican Pat McCrory 41 percent and Libertarian Mike Munger three percent.

Thirteeen percent were undecided.

"Despite the initial round of ads critical of McCrory, he has held his support steady and, in fact, closed the gap on Perdue by one point," said executive director Francis DeLuca. 

The live survey of 600 registered voters was conducted Aug. 14-17 by TelOpinion Research of Alexandria, Va. The margin of error was plus or minus 4.2 percentage points.

Well, despite weeks of attacks from Negative Bev, it looks like McCrory is actually closing the gap in the polls.

Proof that McCrory won debate

Submitted by concerned53 on August 20, 2008 - 4:18pm.

Notice that the only candidate's website that has a link to seeing/hearing last night's debate is Mayor McCrory's website (http://www.patmccrory.com
or go directly to abc11.com).

Why isn't Beverly's site promoting the viewing of the debate? Because she got blown away by Mayor McCrory.

Once North Carolina's voters recognize the differences between Governor McCrory (as Beverly referred to him as last night) and Pat, both the democratic and republican pollsters will report the most important flip-flop for Beverly!
