Cue the junk poll remarks in 3, 2, 1....

[100% pro-life no matter what]

Actually, I think national primaries would be very close on both sides right now.

[The Free North]

Sanders is up with latinos now as well.

[HagridOfTheDeep]

Another reason she needs to go negative on him.

Winning the nomination when national polls show you losing would be awful. If he is allowed to continue unchecked, his numbers will only grow.

[RJEvans]

This is scary. An unvetted candidate is leading a national poll. Bernie will not stand up to scrutiny.

[Landslide Lyndon]

Let me repeat myself.
Clinton is ahead 58-41 in the popular vote among the states that have already voted.
She is ahead by double digits according to polls in New York, Pennsylvania, California.
But somehow she is tied with Sanders nationally?
Gimme a break.

Sanders up 63-31 among Hispanics, 32 points, according to this poll.  How is this remotely believable given that exit polls have shown Latinos at:

Nevada: 53-45 for Sanders
Illinois: 49-50 for Sanders
Florida: 68-32 for Clinton
Texas: 71-29 for Clinton

What, is Sanders winning literally every Hispanic person in California?  Because thats the only way you can get the math to work out for this poll.

Clinton also only leads 61-35 (26 points) with African Americans, which is lower than her result with the group in every state so far.  How does this result make any sense given that she won blacks 69-31 in Wisconsin (and by basically the same margin throughout the rest of the midwest) and 89-11 in Mississippi (and by a similar margin throughout the South).

It's possible, but, if true, it wouldn't matter much, that people have changed their minds in places that have already voted.  For instance, it wouldn't seem like a stretch to say that Bernie would beat Hillary by 10 points in Iowa today.

[President Johnson]

Complete junk. TRUMP is leading by a larger margin and Bernard is certainly not leading Hillary.

[Ebsy]

lol

MOE of the poll is 4.8, btw. Trump's still leading, but only by a hair.

Trump will also fall behind Romney's pace in 2012 if he's not at 41.0 by the 11th.

Peak Santorum = 34.3. Peak Cruz is 33.2 Cruz hasn't gotten to where Santorum was in 2012, at least not yet.

Romney also didn't hit 50 nationwide until after the 22nd of the month. Trump is running out of time.

Romney was at 33, January 27th. Trump was at 33, December 14th, a full month and a half ahead.

Trump was behind Romney in early February - Romney was at 34.5, Trump was at 29.0.

Looks like Marist was a week late on their April Fools joke.

Sanders has won the Latino votes in Colorado, areas like MN, Kansas, etc or even Washington, Hawaii & most of the states he has won.

Anyways National polls at this point are meaningless. In competitive races, Sanders wins or ties the latino votes, meaning they are fairly divided!

No.
