New PPP Poll of NY - Bernie closing the gap

He is closer at this time, than he was before MI.

New PPP Poll of NY: HRC: 51% BS: 40%
All the NY Polls seem to be about the same HRC up 11-16 points:

On the Democratic side Hillary Clinton's leading with 51% to 40% for Bernie Sanders. Clinton benefits from more committed support than Sanders- 88% of her voters say they'll definitely cast their ballots for her, compared to 71% of Sanders backers who say the same. All the normal splits present themselves in New York. Clinton is dominant with women (57/34), but trails slightly with men (47/44). The race is close among white voters- a 47/43 Clinton lead- while she has much more emphatic advantages with Hispanics (66/28) and African Americans (61/32). Sanders is ahead with younger voters (56/40), but Clinton's up by even more with seniors (63/27). Clinton's lead is widest in New York City (55/38), followed by the suburbs (51/40), and the race is effectively tied upstate (47/44).

problem with his young voters who never thought to register as a Democrat in March OR who didn't change their affiliation from I or R to D last October. Those young people don't think past tomorrow. I know. I raised two of them.

A reporter from MSNBC was walking down a line of people waiting for a Bernie Rally. She asked them those very same questions that are common in that erroneous meme.

She asked how many were registered to vote, and they all yelled "yes!".

And asked if they had registered as Democrats so they could vote for Bernie and they yelled "yes!".

She was taken aback so she asked if anyone was not registered and not one person said they weren't.

OOPS! Meme busted!

He won that age group 73-26 in Wisconsin. And he won Wisconsin men 64-35 versus the 47-44 in this NY poll.

And I live obviously in Michigan by my screen name. Michigan is not New York in any way. We had independent voters.I think sanders would need to bring it within 5 in last minute polls to win in a closed primary.
