According to a new Public Policy Polling survey, a hypothetical U.S. Senate race between Sen. Elizabeth Dole (R-NC) and state legislator Grier Martin (D) could be very close, with Dole holding a slight 43% to 37% lead.
Dole also led state senator Kay Hagan (D), 43% to 27%, and tops Elaine Marshall (D), 46% to 35%.
The key to Dole's vulnerability is a 46% approval rating among the state's voters, with 40% disapproving of her job performance.
