The gubernatorial race remains a dead heat.
According to a recent poll by Survey USA, Democratic nominee Beverly Perdue had 47 percent, Republican nominee Pat McCrory had 46 percent and Libertarian Mike Munger had three percent. Four percent were undecided.
The results mostly line up with recent polls by Democratic firm Public Policy Polling and the conservative Civitas Institute, which have also showed a tight race.
The poll showed a significant gender gap, with McCrory leading by 11 points among men and Perdue leading by 12 points among women.
The poll of 676 likely registered voters was taken July 12 through July 14. The margin of error was plus or minus 3.8 percentage points.
