Bernie Sanders Wins the Debate, According to Various Polls

Bernie Sanders Wins the Debate, According to Various Polls
teleSUR

A poll carried out by Fox News shows that 77.29 percent of the people that responded to the survey felt that the independent senator from Vermont won the debate, while only 15.9 percent voted in favor of Clinton.

A poll by Slate showed similar results. Sanders topped their survey with 75 percent of the respondents' votes, while Clinton garnered only 18 percent.

The Washington Post also concluded that Sanders won the debate. They based their appraisal on the online response.



"Sanders repeatedly saw spikes in Google interest after he spoke. After his intro. After he talked about guns. After basically everything else he said,” Washington Post said.

Forbes wrote after the debate that Sanders “cleaned up on the social media service, rapidly outpacing the other four candidates when it came to adding new followers.”

Remember all the posts "Lets Go DU this poll" meaning go to some internet poll in big numbers and influence it. His supporters are more organized on the internet than Hillary's I'll say that.

Exactly. The Hillary crowd still believes the pundits. I guess they forgive her for voting for the Iraq war and the Patriot act.
