Poll Demographics

About this Poll
PPP surveyed 804 North Carolina voters, including an oversample of 492 usual
Republican primary voters, from March 8th to 11th. The margin of error for the entire
survey is +/-3.5%, and +/-4.4% for the GOP sample. This poll was not paid for or
authorized by any campaign or political organization. PPP surveys are conducted through
automated telephone interviews. PPP is a Democratic polling company, but polling
expert Nate Silver of the New York Times found that its surveys in 2010 actually
exhibited a slight bias toward Republican candidates.
