Poll: Clinton up 25 points in Maryland

By Nick Gass

04/21/16 12:00 PM EDT

Nearly 6 in 10 likely Democratic primary voters in Maryland support Hillary Clinton over Bernie Sanders ahead of the state's Tuesday election, according to the results of a Monmouth University poll released on Thursday.

While Clinton earned 57 percent support, Sanders took 32 percent, and 10 percent are undecided between the two candidates. Those results are largely in line with recent polling, including an NBC 4/Marist survey conducted earlier this month, which found Clinton with a similar 26-point edge.

Clinton leads among all demographic groups, including men (59 percent to 32 percent), women (56 percent to 32 percent), black voters (64 percent to 20 percent), white voters (52 percent to 39 percent), voters over the age of 50 (64 percent to 25 percent), and notably, among voters under the age of 50 (50 percent to 39 percent), where Sanders usually thrives.

Regardless of who the Democratic nominee is, 87 percent in the reliably blue state said they would support Clinton over Donald Trump, while 83 percent said the same for Sanders in the same matchup.

Maryland has 95 pledged delegates up for grabs on Tuesday,............

Looking forward to seeing this smile on Tuesday night when she wins big in DC, CT, DE, MD, PA & RI! #ImWithHer

[Renew Deal]

1. I think Bernie could pack it in next week

25 in MD and 10+ in PA is going to put her way ahead

[Mira]

3. Maybe he could but

He won't and I'm glad for it.

[Renew Deal]

4. Something else to think about

If he does, I wonder if it will create urgency for republicans to end their race.

[silvershadow]

10. He won't. He's in it to win it, and he's not leaving California or any other state out, unlike the

DNC under our current 17-state strategy or whatever.

[LannyDeVaney]

13. Sec. Clinton won't be leaving any state out either ...

the DNC isn't running, last time I checked.

We've had debates, caucuses and primaries.

The democracy will proceed.

[silvershadow]

18. Oh? Do tell. (Not that I even suggested she would, you inserted that as if I said it). Tell me,

though, more about her 50-state strategy (either Hillary's or Debbie's)....

[Pharaoh]

5. No he won't

Say what you will but Bernie is no wimp.

No doubt though Tuesday will be very interesting to watch ,,...

[pnwmom]

16. Yeah it's so great he and Hillary are having to waste so much supporter money to fight each other

instead of saving it to use against Cruz or Trump.

[davidpdx]

24. So those of us in states that haven't voted yet shouldn't get our chance to vote for Bernie

That is exactly what you are saying when implying he should drop out.

[pnwmom]

28. I'm not saying you shouldn't have a chance to vote. But Bernie should dial back his attacks on her

just as Hillary did in 2008 at this point in the campaign. They both should be focusing on attacking the Rethugs, not each other.

[reACTIONary]

32. Do they cancel the primary if a candidate concides?

I would think that you would get to vote anywy.

[davidpdx]

39. If a candidate is forced out before the end of the primaries why the fuck would it matter?

There are plenty of people on DU that want to see primary voters disenfranchised. That is my point.

[reACTIONary]

40. Actually I think there are . ...

.... plenty of people on DU who are butt-hurt because their boy didn't win.

Denial is the first stage of grief. That's been going on for some time, and still is. Anger and resentment is stage two.

[DebJ]

26. Neither of them would have any difficulty raising funds for the general election.

Hillary's loaded with billionaire support and Bernie supporters aren't even close to maxed out.

And the pure terror of the possiblity of Trump or Cruz winning will have money flying to either of them
from all kinds of people.

[GummyBearz]

36. hahaha. Don't worry, she knows where to get more money from

Millionaires, billionaires, and wall street in general will keep her well funded. And she will return the favor the next time they need it. So rest easy

[pandr32]

25. She is already way ahead

And is the presumptive nominee. There is no way for Sanders to make it at this point, and in fact the math already stopped showing a possible path for him on March 15. Too bad Sanders keeps peddling a con to his supporters that he can still win--send money.

[DebJ]

27. We need to win a place for a progressive platform, an ACTUAL progressive platform,

no matter who the candidate is.

It's not 'about Bernie'. It's about progressive ideals and having the chutzpah to try to work for them and not stop ever in any way possible.

It's not a popularity contest. And nothing is inevitable.

It's a continuous battle for forever. Rights won are retaken if not fought for, as well, just look at US history. So the march for progressivism, true progress, can never stop and never fail to use every possible pressure point at all times.

[pandr32]

30. Hillary Clinton will have strong support

...and will continue her work to help women, children, seniors, workers, civil rights, union concerns, the transition to green energy, to overturn Citizens United, to go after the shadow banking system, other protections, criminal justice reform, to raise the federal minimum wage, to get healthcare past the red state firewall and costs down, to make sure trade deals protect American interests, to help with affordable housing, to keep us secure, to get immigration legislation passed, and on and on.

It isn't just talk.

[GummyBearz]

37. Hillary Clinton will have strong support

...and will continue her work to help wall street, the NSA, free trade deals that hurt the middle class, over throwing of foreign governments


I fixed it for you

[reACTIONary]

41. +100 !! (NT)

[redstateblues]

2. A few more nails in the coffin

[Beacool]

6. When all is said and done, Hillary may have triple the pledged delegate advantage

that Obama had in 2008.

[sus453]

7. She won't get

my vote next Tuesday.

[Lean]

20. She Won't Get Mine Either

I don't vote for Republican-lite Democrats. Mrs. Clinton stands for nothing.

[Kingofalldems]

22. I'll cancel you out with my vote.

This is a closed primary also.

[Lean]

29. Nomination

If Sanders doesn't get the nomination, I can only hope that Bernie will run as an independent. Then, progressives, independents, and republicans alike will be happy to kick Clinton to the road. We will not abandon our progressive ideals. Hillary is no progressive. She's a "Goldwater" girl, remember? We'll cancel out your vote for the corporatist. : )

[Kingofalldems]

31. Well if we are talking opinions, I don't think you are a progressive either.

Good try though.

[MADem]

8. Well, that's good news for our team!

The sooner we can put this away, the better.

[msongs]

9. angry bernie will narrow that gap by attacking real democrats who can read nt

[silvershadow]

11. Mad Hillary will cackle her way to a safe place of comfort to quell the looming pit in her stomach.

[BeanMusical]

14. Lol!

[LannyDeVaney]

15. We'll see ...

odd wording on your part, in several ways in my opinion, but we will indeed find out soon enough.

[pnwmom]

17. And Bernie the Scold will follow his wagging finger back to Vermont. n/t

[Democat]

21. What's the point of trashing one of the Democratic candidates?

If you're going to troll, please do it in the Primaries forum.

[Gothmog]

12. Thanks for posting

[Firebrand Gary]

19. Kicked and recommended!

[Gamecock Lefty]

23. Bernie is just trying to save face now!

He knows he's whipped. Last Tuesday he was stunned by the overwhelming support for Hillary. Same is going to happen next Tuesday.

Bernie sees the light at the end of the tunnel - and it's a Hillary locomotive coming right at him!

As for the poster that said Hillary won't get their vote next Tuesday, she won't get mine, either. That's because she already did - when we voted here in Missouri - a state she won!

[LenaBaby61]

33. Looking forward to next weeks rounds of primaries .....

And to seeing Hillary secure wins in Washington DC, Connecticut, Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania & Rhode Island as she continues on her way to becoming the Democratic nominee for POTUS ....

[alcibiades_mystery]

34. Will Bernie win a single state on Tuesday?

Oh, the conspiracy theories will be legendary!

[NurseJackie]

35. She's SURGING! Bernie is in FREEFALL!

[riversedge]

38. Fingers and toes crossed that you are right.
