Poll: Bernie Sanders Overtakes Hillary Clinton in Oklahoma

Poll: Bernie Sanders Overtakes Hillary Clinton in Oklahoma

Just a day before Super Tuesday, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton are about even in Oklahoma.

A poll released Monday shows Sanders in the lead in Oklahoma's Democratic primary, with a five-point lead over Clinton. That lead is within the poll's 5.7 percent margin of error.

Sanders polled at 48 percent to Clinton's 43 percent. Another 8 percent said they were undecided, and 1 percent said they planned to vote for another candidate.

At least that's what Bernie supporters were telling me this weekend after Hillary won South Carolina.

Is there some list where we can see which states count and which states don't?

This is all terribly confusing.

Bernie is against fracking, Hillary and Trump are for it.

Thanks for the thread, Barack_America.

Instead of coal and mountaintop removal it's oil and fracking.
