Poll methodology: This poll of 600 registered general election voters in North Carolina was conducted January 19-20 by National Research, Inc. of Holmdel, NJ. All respondents were part of a fully representative sample of registered voters in North Carolina. For purposes of this study, voters interviewed had to have voted in two of the past four general elections or were newly registered to vote since 2008.
The confidence interval associated with a sample of this size is such that: 95 percent of the time, results from 600 interviews (registered voters) will be within +-4% of the “True Values.” True Values refer to the results obtained if it were possible to interview every person in North Carolina who had voted in two of the past four general elections or were newly registered to vote since 2008.

Very interesting results with q3 paired up against q4. I think it is all about spinning the actions into a different message. People are swayed by the message and do not see or maybe don’t understand the actions. So far, Obama is masterful at spinning.

Good job!

As an ostensible “Blue state” (based on voter registration rolls) I’m surprised by the fiscally and socially conservative results revealed by this poll. “Keep hope alive””
hobbybob says
These results are even more amazing when you see that 47% of those polled were democrats (to just 34% republicans).
Howard Miner says
I agree with Hobbybob, very surprising when you compare the results with voter registration numbers. Very good survey. Keep up the good work.
Kelly says
Thanks for the survey. This type of info is beyond broadcasts of
news.
Questions:
Do we the people determine acceptability of government, or do the employees we place on the job make those decisions?
Doesn’t this survey make a very important statement?
Are these presentations only a conversation piece to converse with others about at the next social gathering?
Is the act of casting a vote my only allowed input pertaining to directions of the country or the state?
Pat C says
I don’t think there should be any parties listed on any ballot in any election. That forces voters to research the candidates and cast an informed vote.
Great survey…will pass it on…
Lloyd says
Great, revealing survey. It is also timely, with what is happening in state government. At some point, let’s hope that politicians start listening to their constituents.
