Hillary Clinton now leads the polls in the next six democratic primary states
Now that Hillary Clinton is coming off a blowout win over Bernie Sanders in the New York primary which expanded her lead to nearly three million votes, casual observers have wondered how near or far away she is from sealing the deal on the democratic nomination. After all, Sanders did win a string of small states in a row in late March and early April. Those didn’t meaningfully cut into Clinton’s lead, but the recent see-saw has been enough to cause some to ask what will happen in the next several states. As it turns out, Hillary has leads in at least the next six of them.
Most observers are aware that Pennsylvania is the next big dot on the primary calendar on April 26th. The final average of polls says that Hillary Clinton is ahead by fifteen points in the state. Thus far in this democratic primary race, the closed primary format used in Pennsylvania has resulted in accurate polling data. But four other states also vote on April 26th.
Maryland has been leaning toward Clinton for some time, and the final average of polls has her winning the state by twenty-two points. There was no polling in the smaller state of Connecticut for some time, but now two late arriving polls have pegged it as an average 7.5 point lead for Hillary.
Delaware had been a black hole for 2016 polling, but one poll finally chimed in last week and projected a seven point win for Hillary. Rhode Island’s only available data had been a two month old poll that said Hillary was ahead by nine points, but that same poll was finally updated today – and it turns out Hillary is still ahead by nine points. That means she’s leading in all five of this Tuesday’s states.
