Ted Budd will win. Mr. Budd's ads focus on the 'meat and potato' issues (inflation, border, crime, etc.), while Ms. Beasley's ads focus on capping the price of insulin and that she is an 'outsider' (Did Democrats not use the 'outsider' issue to attack President Trump? Is it okay for a Democrat to be an outsider, but not a Republican?). Mr. Budd is focusing on the important issues, while Ms. Beasley is focusing on the "99th issue of a list of 100 issues".

It seems voters who are being polled don't feel the same as you. Mr Budd should have a 10% lead on Ms Beasley why doesn't he?

You left off Abortion, the #1 issue of the 2022 mid-terms.
The article you provided was published on August 2, 2022, or over one month ago. Much has happened since then that will hurt the Democratic Party amongst Independents, such as the Biden Administration's student debt "relief" that will cost every taxpayer several thousand dollars, if it ever happens.
I am a regular watch of "the big three" national stations and local stations. I have never seen the advertisement displayed in the video in your link.
The only advertisements I see are from Ted Budd, telling me how he will vote against spending bills that have caused inflation and vote for bills that promote stronger border security, and Cheri Beasley telling me how she is an 'outsider', which is EXACTLY what Democrats attacked President Trump for saying. Cheri Beasley has not used any of her advertisements to explain her positions on big issues, unlike Ted Budd.
The amount of Cheri Beasley advertisements have dropped in recent weeks and the number of Ted Budd advertisements have grown in recent weeks. That means one of two things. Number One: Cheri Beasley has this race locked up and Ted Budd is trying to play catch-up. Or, number two: Cheri Beasley is not doing so hot, and is choosing save her money and spend it in the next few weeks, while Ted Budd is just shoring up his voters.
Option number two is the most likely accurate scenario to be occurring. Actually, I am surprised Cheri Beasley is not advertising more, because a Democrat is always an underdog in a North Carolina Federal race, at least since 2010...
What does that have to do with the fact that polling doesn't even show a 3, 4, 5% lead for Mr Budd?
RCP has Budd 2.8% average. We still have 2 months to go and a debate. As of now, that's not way off from 3% to 4% prediction in my post. Again, you don't have answers and I don't, We shall see in 2 months. Burr won last time with 5.7%, so your opinion that Budd should be up by 10% is funny to me.
That and being attached to Trump are the two wild cards that are going to leave a wake of disappointed republicans on November 9.
