In a big development in a key swing state, the advertisement tracking company AdImpact is reporting that Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign canceled $2.7 million in ad buys in North Carolina. The surprising move comes in the final week of the presidential campaign.
North Carolina is considered by most political experts to be one of seven battleground states, with 16 electoral votes. Former President Donald Trump won the state in 2020 and 2016. However, Kamala Harris has made multiple campaign appearances in the state in hopes of flipping it.
Trump is slated to make a campaign stop in North Carolina on Wednesday, Oct. 30.
The Carolina Journal reports the race for North Carolina is still in a dead heat with the candidates tied at 47% each. However, the Journal also says Trump leads Harris from Charlotte to western North Carolina by 12 points and leads Harris by 9 points in the coastal area.
The same poll shows Harris is ahead in the Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill area by 15 points. Harris is slated to make a campaign appearance in Raleigh on Wednesday.
