Clinton leads in 10 of 12 Early March Primaries; Benefits From Overwhelming Black Support

http://www.publicpolicypolling.com/main/2016/02/clinton-leads-in-10-of-12-early-march-primaries-benefits-from-overwhelming-black-support.html

New Public Policy Polling surveys of the 12 states that will hold Democratic primaries for President between March 1st and 8th, conducted on behalf of American Family Voices, find Hillary Clinton leading the way in 10 of 12, with double digit leads in 9 of them. Bernie Sanders has an overwhelming lead in his home state of Vermont and also leads in Massachusetts. The race is close in Oklahoma where Clinton is ahead by just 2 points, but she has double digit leads in the other 9 states that will have primaries that week:



Clinton is benefiting in these states from overwhelming African American support. She leads by anywhere from 40-62 points among black voters in the nine of these states that have more black voters than the national average. Her support ranges from 63-74% with black voters in those states, while Sanders gets 12-23%:




The individual states are listed at link.

#Clinton leads in 10 of 12 March polls, in part because she is winning a huge amount of black vote, per @ppppolls.

the first two states are not reflective of America. Super Tuesday will tell the story. Clinton is going to have a great night Super Tuesday. She should have it wrapped up that night if not later that month.

Bernie can't win a general election without Democratic support.
