STORYLINE:
Both presidential campaigns have spent lots of time in North Carolina this year, putting an emphasis on the swing state’s rural voters.

North Carolina has the second highest rural population behind Texas. In 2020, only 14 rural North Carolina counties voted for Biden; the state’s 64 others backed Trump.

The Raleigh-Durham area makes up a significant amount of ad spending for the campaigns. The area skews heavily Democratic, but it also borders counties such as Granville and Franklin that voted for Trump in 2020.

North Carolina has been an underappreciated political battleground recently and not gotten the same attention as nearby Georgia or Florida or the traditional campaign hotbeds of the Rust Belt.

That is changing in 2024, partly because of a potentially historic governor’s race that pits North Carolina’s centrist tendencies against the rise of populist conservatism in the era of Donald Trump.
North Carolina has a long history of split results between the governor and the presidency.
