North Carolinians received another powerful reminder recently that their state’s electoral politics are never boring, when Republican U.S. Senator Thom Tillis suddenly announced he will not seek reelection next year. The announcement has set off a flurry of activity in which it has sometimes seemed that more politicians are considering entering the 2026 Senate race than not.

So, what should we make of Tillis’s announcement and what it portends? And what do the latest polls say voters are thinking about Tillis and the people who might succeed him? Recently, NC Newsline caught up with the Director of the Center for North Carolina Politics & Public Service at Catawba College, Prof. Michael Bitzer, to find out. We also discuss the Catawba College-YouGov survey of 1,000 North Carolinians on their confidence in President Trump’s decision-making across different policy issues.
