NC-NBC/WSJ/Marist: Cooper +1

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Guys, large parts of NC-01 and Eastern NC is flooded right now. Polling will not be accurate in this state. Also Fayetteville and Lumberton have a lot of flooding as well.


Also McCrory has been all over the response to this storm, which is worse than Floyd in some ways.


I don't know that people are understanding just how bad it is out here. My town is litterally surrounded by other communities that are under water or were underwater yesterday.

The question is in what direction it's biasing the polls.

Those are Democratic areas, so it might be undemining Cooper. At the same time McCrory was "in charge" of a crisis situation providing a temporary bounce.
