New poll: Female voters flock to Bernie Sanders from Hillary Clinton

New poll: Female voters flock to Bernie Sanders from Hillary Clinton

Bernie Sanders pulled within two points of Hillary Clinton in a stunning new national poll and brought his progressive message to the Vatican just hours after dominating a brawling Brooklyn debate.

Sanders closed a 13-point gap in a Fox News Channel poll last month to just two points, 48-46 percent. The boost came from female voters, a longtime Clinton stronghold. The former secretary of state’s support among women dropped by 11 points, while Sanders’ showing jumped by 9 points.

If Hillary wants to claim the mantle of feminism,

1. She should trust women to know what the best decision is for them should there be a problem not revealed until the 3rd trimester of a pregnancy.
2. Apologize for her advocacy of both the crime bill and welfare reform, and propose expaanding the safety net for single parent families.
3. Issue formal apologies to the women she helped her husband smear after his predatory behavior was revealed again and again.
