The State Of The Race
By John Hood
Carolina Journal
RALEIGH – After the two national political conventions, numerous flights of TV ads, five new publicly released voter surveys, and three televised debates, North Carolina’s gubernatorial race has become one of the most competitive statewide races in the nation.
On Tuesday, Lt. Gov. Beverly Perdue and Charlotte Mayor Pat McCrory appeared sequentially, but not simultaneously, at a Raleigh forum sponsored by the N.C. Coalition for Lobbying and Government Reform, of which I am a member. They will square off on TV for the last time this Friday, at a Cary debate on education issues sponsored by the Public School Forum, though McCrory will appear a couple more times next month at broadcast forums with Libertarian candidate Mike Munger (Perdue was invited but declined).
Now is a good time for a status check on the race.
