The Tar Heel State is a critical battleground state in the November presidential election between Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris. North Carolina is rated as a “toss up” by the Cook Political Report, and Trump leads Harris, 49%-48.4%, in the RealClearPolitics polling average in the state.

Fayetteville is home to Fort Liberty, formerly called Fort Bragg, which is home to tens of thousands of military personnel.
