New Oklahoma Poll--HRC up by 9

In the latest poll, Clinton leads with 40 percent, Sanders has 31 percent. However, 29 percent of voters say they’re still undecided, according to the poll.

“This race is being driven a lot by the undecided, conservative Democrats who don’t feel like they have any candidate in this race,” pollster Bill Shapard said.

“So it remains to be seen, will they stay home on Election Day or will they finally pick one of the candidates?”


The survey of 510 likely Democratic and independent voters was conducted February 23 to 25. It has a margin of error of +/-4.34 percent.

Oklahoma is a very conservative state and even the Democrats are pretty conservative. My guess is that if there really are 29% of Democrats undecided because they are conservative they will either stay home or vote in the GOP primary.

even though this one favors Hillary. I can't believe that this close to the primary that many people are undecided. But it is the latest poll, so thought I would post it.
