Tar Heel Poll-Clinton 57% Sanders 24%

[DemocratSinceBirth]

2016 Democratic Presidential Primary
Registered voters who are self-identified Democrats or Independents who lean Democratic were
asked who they would vote for if the presidential primary were held today. Three candidate
names were read to respondents with names rotated randomly.
Hillary Clinton is still the clear favorite among Democratic voters in North Carolina. Fifty-seven
percent said they planned on voting for Clinton, a 33 point lead over Bernie Sanders’ 24 percent.
Clinton's support is up 4 points from the September survey. Martin O'Malley had less than 3
percent support. Nearly 14 percent of Democrats or Democratic leaning Independents are still undecided

2. But Carson beats Clinton

Of those two primary results were to pan out, poll respondents picked Carson to carry North Carolina over Clinton next November, 48 to 44 percent.

3. Until the debates.

Wait until the world hears he thinks Earth is 6000 years old and that Joseph built the pyramids to store grain.

5. Or that he lied about his hard scrabble youth.

EOM

4. The election is a long time from now...

But if you take succor in the fact that Ben Carson might be our next president please don't let me get in the way of your enjoyment.

6. Why are you attempting to put words in my mouth.

Why the need to make assumptions on other's intentions.

I just posted what I read, remembered this post and felt the need to share.

7. You brought up Dr. Carson's lead, not me.

But Carson beats Clinton

I thought that was the point.

With additional information.

11. I will do something I rarely do and apologize...

But the election is soooooooo far away and we don't know who the GOPU nominee will be...

12. Accepted

NC is in such a whacky mess right now it's not even funny anymore.

A POS was elected Gov., the baggers came out in mass quantities last few elections and I really think we're in the middle of a D voter apathy problem. Dems are trying to get Roy Cooper going as a challenge. Who knows?

I won't even waste a coin flipping who turns out what at this moment.

13. I like both Carolinas.

I have friends in Fayetteville.

14. Cool. I LOVE NC

My family and I are transplants from NJ although my grandparents had roots in SC. Been here almost 20 years.

Lived in Fayetteville for about 8 years then moved out in the rurals when our house burned down in 05. Really nice here but this county I'm in is redder than a diaper rashed baby's butt.

One good piece of news IS that NC is capable of turning purple so it would be awesome if Dem leadership does not give up on us.

15. You had to suffer through Jesse Helms.

8. I like to see NC actually getting something right politically.

Doesn't happen too often these days. K & R

9. Wait till all democrats hear about

Bernie selling out to Trey Gowdys witch hunters.

I hope his weak numbers will drop to single digits then!

16. Bernie is a flip -flopper after doing the right thing on national TV--word will travel.
