Emerson Poll New York: HRC: 55% BS: 40% (HRC runs best against Trump)

Clinton holds a strong lead among Democratic minority voters, with a massive advantage in key
demographic groups such including African Americans (72% to 22%) and Hispanics (56% to 33%). The
former Secretary of State also holds the female vote (59% to 48%) and only trails Sanders by 1 point
among males (49% to 48%)

Sanders maintains his support among 18-34 year olds winning 61% to 31% but comes up short among
the rest of the population losing 35-54 year olds 54%-39%, 55-74 year olds 65%-31% and those over 75,
71% to 29%.

Among likely Democratic voters, Clinton’s favorable/unfavorable ratio is 73%/23% (+50) while Sanders is
68%/23% (+45). However, Clinton garners far more loyalty: 71% of those who view her favorably plan to
vote for her in the primary, while only 56% who have a favorable view of Sanders intend to vote for him.

Looking ahead to the general election, the Democrats control each of the potential races. Clinton
defeats Trump easily, 55-36 percent, while Sanders also holds a 51-37 percent advantage over the New
York businessman.

Voters over 35 have been around the block enough times to know the critical importance of EXPERIENCE in their choice of a candidate.

They took a chance on the relatively inexperienced BHO because his inherent wisdom and natural prudence were apparent to all.

Not so with the ill-prepared, ill-suited Bernster.

But it is a land line based poll which would skew towards her base anyway.

I hope no slightly-paying-attention-voter sees that number and thinks they can skip voting...that she'd do fine just the same.

Don't count on the numbers, vote vote vote!

I think a double digit win is most likely!

Can't WAIT to vote for her tomorrow!
