Republican North Carolina Lieutenant Governor Mark Robinson's chances of defeating Democrat Josh Stein in the state's gubernatorial election appear to be slim, according to new polling results.


Stein, North Carolina's attorney general, was supported by 49.3 percent of likely North Carolina voters in a poll released by Carolina Journal on Thursday, while Robinson was backed by only 35.8 percent. The 13.5 percentage point deficit was a major reversal for Robinson, who was leading Stein in the same poll by 5 points in May.

The Carolina Journal survey was not the worst recent poll result for Robinson. A Morning Consult survey from this week showed the Republican trailing the Democrat by 22 points. The poll of likely North Carolina voters found that 54 percent supported Stein, while just 32 percent supported Robinson.
