If North Carolina turns blue, it could be key to the November vote between Biden and Trump…
GREENSBORO, N.C. — We all know North Carolina is a key battleground state, but now there's one theoretical map model that shows North Carolina could be a decisive state in the presidential election. there is.
Currently, eight states are considered “toss-ups,” meaning the lead or polls are constantly changing within the margin of error: North Carolina, Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin.
If these are met according to the poll results, former President Donald Trump will win. This is not as big as the victory over Hillary Clinton, when Trump received 306 votes to Clinton's 232 votes. But under this model, Trump would win with 297 votes to Biden's 241.
Here's how North Carolina can play an even bigger role. Another possible map shows that if President Joe Biden is able to carry Pennsylvania, North Carolina's 16 electoral votes would be enough to sway the election between Biden and Trump.
However, this seems less likely to happen. Trump currently holds a 2% lead over Biden in Pennsylvania, according to Real Clear Politics, a change from March when Biden led. Still, they're both polling within average error, so it doesn't matter to anyone.
Trump's lead in North Carolina is narrowing slightly. His average lead is now 5.4%, down from 7.5% in February, according to Real Clear Politics.
Of course, November is still far away. The map may have changed a lot by then, but there's one thing we know for sure. That means your vote will once again play an important role in the next election.
