This week's PPP poll of the North Carolina senate race shows Kay Hagan dropping from a 7-point lead to a 3-point lead. Considering that Hagan led by only 2 points two weeks ago, last week's lead was probably on the optimistic side, rather than this drop being suggestive of a major trend. Still, it's an indicator that this race can't be taken for granted and needs to be fought to the end.
The presidential race also sees slightly tighter numbers this week, with Obama up over McCain 49-48. Governor's race numbers will be out tomorrow.
