PPP Florida Poll: Clinton: 57% Bernie: 32%

On the Democratic side Hillary Clinton has a dominant advantage, getting 57% to 32% for Bernie Sanders.

Clinton's particularly strong among African Americans with whom she leads 68/26, but she's also up 54/34 with whites and 54/40 with Hispanics. Clinton also benefits from Florida having an older Democratic primary electorate- her 66/23 advantage with seniors takes her further here than it does other places. Another thing working to Clinton's advantage is Florida having a closed primary- we've consistently found her up big with Democrats but Sanders' strength with independents cuts significantly into her lead in open primary states. 85% of Clinton's supporters say they're firmly committed to her, compared to 61% of Sanders' who say the same for him.
