Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump are locked in a close race in North Carolina, a politically and racially polarized battleground where the Democratic presidential nominee is struggling to match the share of black voters President Barack Obama won in 2012.

Clinton has 46 percent and Trump 45 percent in a two-way contest, a Bloomberg Politics poll of the state’s likely voters found, even as Trump is boosted by a 26-point advantage among independents. When third-party candidates are included, Clinton has 44 percent to Trump’s 43 percent.
