North Carolina may be in for a close U.S. Senate race after all, according to two new polls.
Republican U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Dole has a 5-point lead over Democratic nominee Kay Hagan, a state senator from Greensboro, according to the latest survey by Public Policy Polling.
And a new poll by Rasmussen Reports shows the race essentially tied. Hagan was the choice of 48 percent of those surveyed, while Dole was the choice of 47 percent.
The Rasmussen phone poll of 500 likely voters was conducted on May 8. It has a margin of error of plus or minus 4.5 percentage points. Public Policy Polling took an automated poll of 616 likely voters on May 8-9. The margin of error was plus or minus 4 percentage points.
Dole was the choice of 48 percent of those surveyed, while 43 percent favored Hagan.
