http://www.publicpolicypolling.com/main/2015/07/trump-leads-gop-field-in-north-carolina.html

"All of the general election match ups in North Carolina are close with Clinton trailing 5 of the Republican hopefuls, leading 4 of them, and tied with one.

The strongest GOP hopefuls for the general election, leading Clinton by 4, are Mike Huckabee at 49/45 and Scott Walker at 47/43. Ben Carson leads her by 3 at 47/44, and Marco Rubio and Rand Paul each have 1 point leads at 47/46 and 46/45 respectively.

The weakest Republicans in the state are Donald Trump and Chris Christie who each trail Clinton by 3 points at 47/44 and 46/43 respectively. Also trailing Clinton are Jeb Bush at 45/43 and Ted Cruz at 47/46. Clinton's tie comes with Carly Fiorina at 45%."

Considering Clinton has 100% name recognition and is getting around 45-47%, it can be assumed that she will probably lose the state by around 3-5 to your generic R.

Clinton has gotten constant negative press for 3 months now, so this can't be assumed of course. This will by 100% certainty be the low point of Clinton's campaign.

With Walker up by 4 against Clinton now without full name-recognition I could see him winning by 5-6 in NC.

Others like Rubio and Paul about 3 points. The GOP who should be worried the most is Bush since he is losing and has name recognition of about Hillary Clinton.

Notice: Hillary's electibility advantage is slipping. She trails Walker by 4, Bernie trails Walker by 8. Until now polls have generally shown Hillary's advantage over Bernie electorally at 10 or more.

Non-Clinton Matchups:

Walker 43
Sanders 35

Walker 44
Webb 31

Walker 43
Chafee 29

Walker 45
O'Malley 29

-------

All candidates are viewed unfavorably, except for Huckabee (39/39), Rubio (35/33), Carson (34/25), and Walker (30/29). Clinton is at 39/55.

It's silly to think that the election campaign will have no effect on public perception of each candidate.  

People may like Marco Rubio if they know almost nothing about him because he's received positive coverage.  Every candidate gets tested, vetted and attacked over the course of a campaign.

The fact is that the Republican numbers aside from Jeb Bush should be considered very soft and preliminary.  And, it's not like Clinton won't be campaigning either.  Don't celebrate Republicans.

"Even now"? What does that mean? Clinton has 100% name recognition.

She has 100% of horrible name recognition right now because of 90 days of "Hillary is the real Bridgegate" news towards her from every single media outlet in America. Taking that into account it's pretty mindblowing that she isn't 20-30% down, especially in a state like North Carolina.

I find it kind of a justice that Hillary is recieving a much more mild form of the Mitt Romney Treatment and they are losing their heads

That's my pt, every GOPer should be ahead by 5-6 pts but spmr arent, staying close in NC is key.

Who are losing their heads? North Carolinians?

As far as I know, Hillary hasn't said that every single illegal immigrant should go selfdeport themselves right now or that only 47% of people will consider voting for me, cause the other 53% are too smart to know that my policies will seriously hurt them economically. If Hillary had said the same, she would of course have gotten the Mitt Romney treatment already.

In fact Trump is doing (much) better than Jeb among NC Republicans right now, though much, much worse among Democrats and probably/perhaps among independents as well.

No her supporters feel a sort of victimhood complex that in a world in which bridgegate and 47% were treated as earth shattering scandals that their princess is somehow being mistreated when people begin to question her emails or slushfund

The good news for Republicans is that Clinton has very little room for improvement with Black voters.

And very large room for improvement with white voters. And everyone else for that matter.

Also room for a dramatic fall with every demographic you can name she is no better a fit for any demographic than Obama was

North Carolina is in the South. Thus she is a better fit than Obama for white (racists). Probably better for Hispanics as well, as Hillary has always had a much higher star in the Hispanic community than Obama.

The continuing rural white collapse plus a slight decline in the black margin for Democrats (likely more relevant than turnout which should remain high) is enough to keep NC off the table for her in a close race IMO.

Wow... we're more than a year from the election and apparently the only thing that matters is name recognition. I'm sure white collar whites will LOVE Walker when they learn more about him.

The assumption that GOP prospects will GROW once people get to know this clown car cavalcade is kind of adorable.

The poll database entry is slightly wrong. It should be:

46% Top-3 Republicans at the moment nationally (Bush/Walker/Carson)
44% Clinton

Rubio hasn't exactly imploded yet. That provision was only mentioned after someone asked what would happen if Bush/Walker/Rubio imploded, not what happened if some lame doctor or some lousy billonaire got slightly ahead of one of them for a while.

Clinton favorability by race:
whites: 26/69% (5% not sure)
blacks: 82/12% (6% not sure)

Sanders favorability by race:
whites: 22/35% (43% not sure)
blacks: 40/14% (46% not sure)

Despite all the recent media attention, Sanders's name recognition is still middling, and has room for growth.  And at least among the blacks who know him, he does OK in favorability (though that doesn't translate into support in the primary).

Also...

Trump favorability by race:
whites: 42/47% (11% not sure)
blacks: 10/76% (14% not sure)

I guess birtherism isn't that popular with black voters?
