Call for 'Revolution' Still Reverberating as Sanders, Clinton Head Neck and Neck Into Indiana

"This is the beginning of the revolt against the establishment, not the end," political analyst says

byAndrea Germanos, staff writer

Days ahead of Indiana's May 3 primary, a new poll shows Democratic presidential rivals Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton neck and neck while observers foresee the Vermont senator's impact being felt long after the nomination is secured.

According to the NBC News/Wall Street Journal/Marist poll, Clinton leads among likely Indiana primary goers 50 percent to Sanders' 46 percent. But that lead is within the poll's margin of error of 4.6 percentage points for Democrats.

The poll also shows Sanders with a greater edge over Clinton in a hypothetical general-election match-up against Donald Trump. The Republican front-runner has a seven-point lead over Clinton in such a square-off, but just a single point lead over Sanders

Also on Sunday, the Sanders campaign announced that it had brought in $25.8 million in April, with the average donation being just under $26. And while the amount is far less than the $44 million haul in March, or $43.5 million in February, the campaign still touted it as surpassing the average monthly total of $17 million.
