Related: About this forumBrand Spanking New Poll From The Land Of Lincoln-Clinton Nearly Triples Sanders 67-25
Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton holds a commanding lead in her native state over U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders ahead of next Tuesday's Illinois primary election, a new Chicago Tribune poll has found.
The survey showed Clinton outpacing Sanders by a better than 2-to-1 margin, with 67 percent saying they'd vote for the former secretary of state and 25 percent saying they'd back the Vermont senator. Another 8 percent were undecided.
The survey found Clinton's strongest support came from African-Americans, with 76 percent of black voters saying they'd vote for her compared with 16 percent for Sanders. An overwhelming 85 percent of black voters had a favorable impression of Clinton while just 4 percent had an unfavorable view. By contrast, only 44 percent of black voters said they had a favorable view of Sanders while 18 percent said they had an unfavorable opinion.
Among Hispanics, Clinton led Sanders 74 percent to 19 percent. Similar to the numbers with black voters, nearly 75 percent of Hispanic voters had a favorable impression of Clinton while just 48 percent said the same about Sanders.

Looks like all three big Industrial States in the Midwest--Michigan, Illinois and Ohio are strong for HRC.

... it won't change the fact that he DOESN'T HAVE ENOUGH DELEGATES to capture the nomination. This thing is all but OVER for him!
Hillary WILL be our nominee!
