INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) – With the Indiana primary coming up in May, more and more Hoosiers are registering to vote.

According to the Marion County Board of Voters, 35,000 county residents have either updated their voter registration or registered to vote for the first time.

That number is about 50 percent higher than four years ago.

A common criticism of Bernie Sanders’ campaign is that he “can’t appeal to anyone but young, white men.” Despite the fact that he won Latino voters in Nevada and did well with them in Illinois, and that he got 35% of the Black vote in Michigan, Clinton fans still like to cling to the fantasy that Bernie fans are all white. For the record, I’m a first-generation Iranian-American male.

Nate Silver now has Bernie with a 57% chance to win Wisconsin, a huge swing from the over 80% chance Hillary had to win just a few days ago. This is based on two polls that show Bernie with decently-sized leads in the state, with just a few days to go before Wisconsinites hit the polls on April 5th.

The latest of these two, a poll by PPP has Sanders leading 49% to 43%.

However, the key part of this poll that nobody has noticed is that Bernie is actually leading with Black voters in the state, earning 51% of their vote to 40% for Hillary Clinton.

A new survey finds Sanders has eliminated the massive lead Hillary Clinton enjoyed just last fall.
Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders has a 4 point lead over rival Hillary Clinton among voters in Wisconsin, according to a Marquette Law School poll.
