The 'West' is basically appalachia, so this poll bodes well for Trump and Sanders in West Virginia.

That western part doesnt suprise me at all, should likely be similar on both sides in west virginia, were pretty similar.

Dominating!

Yep as someone who lives in Washington County, Sanders and Trump will dominate hear and in the extreme west

Lol, this is my feeling as well.

Too bad about Sanders but this is an awful state for him, however he might win CD-6 with these numbers.

Maybe, but I expect the Democratic gerrymander to hurt Sanders a bit in MD-06, just like I think it'll help Trump in the districts that have some of the DC suburbs in them.

Looks like Kasich and Trump will win counties (Trump should win all but 2-3). I doubt Cruz will get a county.

Sanders should win some as well, likely out west as others have mentioned.

Kasich should head out to the Baltimore 'Burbs. That seems to be his best area outside of the DC Suburbs.

Only question about MD-04 is that Trump usually does well with Republican voters who live in minority-majority districts, baring a few exceptions (WI-04, NC-01)

Yeah, that's why I was hesitant. It would depend on how well Sanders does in Upper County MoCo.

The real question here is what did O'Malley do to offend MD so much? He was the governor and has 49% unfavorables. I don't remember hearing that he did anything absolutely horrible as gov

At least we have two weeks here of awful results for Cruz. That should make everyone happy! :D

Failed presidential runs usually hurt your reputation at home. Look at Dodd, Bachmann, Walker, Graham...

The "rain tax" attack against Brown really worked and were essentially attacks on O'Malley by proxy.

O'Malley became quite unpopular as he is retroactively blamed for the Baltimore mess and many of his tax hikes and fee hikes went to far even in Maryland.  That and as others noted his presidential campaign hurt him a good bit here, he should have ran for Senate


This, even a lot of democrats in western maryland voted for Hogan (i did not, if he didnt break his one campaign promise day one I would vote to re-elect him though)

Another thought about those Western MD numbers, could be a good sign for Sanders in Western PA.

Agreed, western and South Central PA.

New Poll: Maryland President by Public Policy Polling on 2016-04-17 (https://uselectionatlas.org/POLLS/PRESIDENT/2016D/polls.php?action=indpoll&id=2420160417108)

Summary:

Clinton:	58%
Sanders:	33%
Other:	0%
Undecided:	9%

2nd choice:
Kasich 27%
Cruz 22%
Trump 13%

2-way matchups:

Trump 54%
Cruz 34%

Trump 53%
Kasich 41%

Kasich 46%
Cruz 36%

fav/unfav % among their own party:

Clinton 65/25% for +40%
Sanders 62/29% for +33%

Trump 57/37% for +20%
Kasich 48/35% for +13%
Cruz 33/50% for -17% (lol)

Cruz supporters have a net positive opinion of Kasich.  However, every other pair of Republican candidates has the supporters of one candidate disliking the other candidate.  Even though Trump is +20 overall, that’s only because his own supporters like him.  He’s -30 among Cruz supporters and -43 among Kasich supporters.

Looking forward to the gif when Cruz wins Indiana tho

I look forward to seeing it if Trump wins Indiana.....

Neither Clinton or Sanders are on the air in the DC market (I checked the FCC website and clicked on the big DC stations) so it lends credence to the polling showing Hillary up huge.

They are both on the air in Baltimore though but they are not heavy ad buys like the other 4 states

I couldn't agree more. And two yuuuuge weeks for TRUMP.
