Related: About this forumPolling in New York of black voters: Clinton 65%, Sanders 28%
since this is the next big primary, I thought I would throw this in here. Since there is so much noise in GDP about every little thing, I hope this will add a little clarity.
With less than a week before Tuesdays New York primary, Clinton enjoys a lead over Sanders in several polls. In an average of several New York primary polls conducted by Real Clear Politics, Clinton has the support of 52.6 percent of voters compared with 39.3 percent support for Sanders.
Clinton has 53 percent support to Sanders 40 percent in the latest poll released by Quinnipiac University Tuesday. Seven percent of voters remain undecided. Clinton maintains a strong lead among black voters with 65 percent support compared to Sanders with 28 percent.

(659 posts)1. Darn, that's quite a margin.
Was hoping the margin closed up a bit more than that.

states that Sanders will lose the black vote in.
"Clinton is buoyed by her support among black voters, with whom she holds a commanding 65% to 28% lead over Sanders."

were parked outside the Democratic debate. WHAT ABOUT THE VANS.
