[Tender Branson]

In a potential primary matchup Clinton is supported by 45 percent of Democrats, compared to 24 percent for Biden and 23 percent for Senator Bernie Sanders.

Donald Trump leads the Republican primary field with 34 percent support, followed by Ben Carson (14 percent) and Jeb Bush (11 percent) and everyone else in single digits.

...

This Siena College Poll was conducted September 14-17, 2015 by telephone calls conducted in English to 817 New York State registered voters, including 378 Democrats and 214 Republicans. Respondent sampling was initiated by asking for the youngest male in the household.  It has an overall margin of error of +/- 4.0 percentage points including the design effects resulting from weighting. The margin of error is +/- 5.0 percentage points for Democrats and +/- 6.7 percentage points for Republicans.

Wow, those are sad numbers for Hillary in NY.

[Phony Moderate]

Wow, those are sad numbers for Hillary in NY.

Hillary is of course only a NYer in the sense that she represented the state in the Senate.

That's kind of a big deal though. She easily beat Obama here in '08 even with his by then not insignificant base of black voters, college students and grassroots liberals factoring heavily in the state's vote.

Sanders is a liberal from Brooklyn and certainly comes across as much more of a New Yorker than Hillary.

[Senator Cris]

Christie's #s are strong in NY.

True.

Also, when Pataki beats you by 3%, and your name is Walker, you know it's time to fire your godfathers the Koch Brothers and rather look for some new godfathers lol.

Yeah but most people don't know that. At least not yet.

Plus, it still doesn't explain Biden's strength here.

Yes, but that's even more embarrassing for Pataki. He was governor for 12 years!
