Rasmussen: Trump +3 over Sanders

[S019]

Bernie is a far left candidate, Trump would be able to beat

Thank you, this much better analysis than muh-Sanders can make OK competitive

Not that I trust Rasmussen on anything, but I have little doubt that Trump could beat Sanders based on Sanders being incredibly inept. The fact that his strategy involves targeting Oklahoma says volumes.

I support Bernie Sanders, but I agree that Trump will be competitive. Bernie will hold NH, CO, NV and may flip ME-02 and NE-02, but Donald will hold OH, IA, and FL, and may flip VA. Sanders will certainly win the popular vote, but Trump may edge out another victory in the Electoral College.
