Bernie Jumps Over 30 points In New York Poll

[Pharaoh]

Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders are locked in a surprisingly competitive battle for New York, with a poll on Thursday showing that the Vermont senator has closed to within 12 points of the former first lady — who only recently led by 48 in her adopted home state.

The Quinnipiac University poll shows Clinton leading 54 to 42 percent heading into the New York primary on April 19, when 291 delegates are at stake.

That’s a dramatic shift from two polls earlier in March

Democratic analyst Douglas Schoen said the closer-than-expected results mirror a national trend.

Sanders, he said, is connecting with the most liberal progressive voters, of whom there are many in New York. Bernie is also riding momentum from a wave of victories in Western states.

1. The more exposure Bernie receives, the more people support him... the exact OPPOSITE is true for HRC

Problematic, I'd say ...

[Scuba]

7. Yep, and people are taking notice of this trend.

[MrMickeysMom]

2. So, can we have a debate now?

I thought we'd have a debate schedule!

Let's really expose what the candidates are saying and why. Let's go, New York!

5. Hillary only wants a debate during a championship basketball game.

“Unfortunately, the dates and venues [Clinton] has proposed don’t make a whole lot of sense,” Sanders spokesman Michael Briggs responded in a statement. “The idea that they want a debate in New York on a night of the NCAA finals – with Syracuse in the tournament, no less – is ludicrous. We have proposed other dates, which they have rejected. We hope we can reach agreement in the near future.”

25. The more debates, the more exposure to the Democrat's message. DO YOU WANNA DANCE?

Just add some rice, coffee and milk!

27. Her arrow is pointing to the right

Right.

[Land of Enchantment]

35. Amen. They agreed to two more--one in April and one in May....

and I'll bet she tries to bail on the May debate too...

[CorporatistNation]

3. YEAH BABY... PRIME TIME... CAUSE ... THIS AI'NT OVER YET!

Here We Go...

4. Not the same poll, the 48 point poll was junk

Doug Schoen?

[Octafish]

6. Bernie wins Wisconsin and the press reports the fact...

...who knows? All that (free) publicity might put him over the top in New York.

[MrMickeysMom]

9. Well, I'm certainly getting good vibes from Wisconsinites in my phone banking this week...

I like to take these personal polls. They're very revealing with the states I've talked to and the result of the races (if people are allowed to vote, that is).

[Octafish]

13. You are TOPS, MrMickeysMom!

Do you invite the people you talk with to tell their family and friends about Bernie Sanders?

I'm getting a vibe the Urosevich brothers are about her only hope.

That stuff that happened out west over the last few weeks is no fluke. When enough people find out, it's like a cascade of dominoes.

For me, I bring up his integrity and people listen. They have tired of candidates who say one thing and eh elected officials who do another.

[MrMickeysMom]

17. God, I hope we have exit polls...

In PA, it's iVotronics for me (Allegheny county, as you know)... Yep, that's her only hope.

Yes, in fact, I do invite those I talk to, including getting neighbors to vote. Too bad I can't seem to get members of my own family to switch from "Independent" in NYS elections. My brother will have to opt out because he thinks he's "independent"... In a pigs eye... but, that's another story.

37. Did you see this from Judi Lynn at LBN?

A Hacker Said He Rigged the 2012 Mexican Election, and It May Still Be Happening Today

By Oscar Balderas and Nathaniel Janowitz
Vice News, April 1, 2016 | 2:15 pm

An imprisoned Colombian hacker, Andrés Sepúlveda, claims he fraudulently helped Enrique Peña Nieto win Mexico's 2012 presidential election, as well as manipulate elections in eight additional countries across Latin America.

Sepúlveda's interview with Bloomberg Businessweek caused a stir throughout Latin America, as well as the United States, particularly for the alleged involvement of Juan Jose Rendón, a Miami-based political consultant who, Bloomberg wrote, has been called the Karl Rove of Latin America for his dark influence on right-wing politics.

And according to the campaign manager for the candidate whom Peña Nieto beat, cybercrimes of the sort Sepúlveda alleged are still happening in Mexican politics.

The hacker claimed that Rendón hired him repeatedly to commit a wide variety of crimes to affect the outcomes of elections, including installing malware, hacking websites, creating fake profiles, and digitally spying on opposition candidates.

38. Wow... Not until you brought them up here...

Same old formula... We manipulate and corrupt others so that they can come back and fortify our misdeeds at home.

Thanks to Judi Lynn and you, as always... Meanwhile, I'm at a loss for what to do when my iVotronics vote occurs or doesn't.

[bvar22]

8. Great News.

What so many said was impossible is now coming to pass.
It was only 3 months ago Hillary supporters were bragging that Bernie would only win 1 state....maybe.

Lots of crow being served up today.

[reformist2]

10. Yet again. Makes me think Bernie never was down 30 points in the first place.

[senz]

11. Beautiful trend! Prepare for increased backlash from the opposition, though.

[ibegurpard]

12. No wonder she's so on-edge

Thank you!

[speaktruthtopower]

14. That's more realistic..

I can see her winning but I don't see him getting trounced.

[Godhumor]

15. For fuck's sake, you can't compare results from one pollster to another

They all follow different methodologies and population parameters.

It just doesn't work that way. At all.

[Gwhittey]

18. HeHe I know you are Clinton supporter

but come on Quinnipiac = Quinnipiac stop trying to be silly we don't buy into your silly Clinton games.

Quinnipiac 5/28 - 6/1 508 RV 4.4 55 15 Clinton +40
Quinnipiac 3/22 - 3/29 693 LV 3.7 54 42 Clinton +12

[Godhumor]

19. That's over 3/4 of a year spread between polls. Also meaningless.

The article is trying to make believe that Bernie has suddenly and radically closed the gap in the last 3 weeks by mixing poll results. That is nonsensical.

[Gwhittey]

21. Ok then send a email to the Article Author.

[Pharaoh]

16. Very interesting

that this post hasn't moved into the trending section yet.

Bias in management?

[tammywammy]

20. Neither the GDP forum, Bernie group nor Hillary group show on the homepage.

22. thanks!

I had no idea! Makes sense though, the Hill people would not be able to handle it!

[amborin]

23. KNR

[tabasco]

24. If Sanders can eke out a tie/win in NY

things will get very interesting.

[Hydra]

36. If Team Hill continues on their meltdown, things will get VERY interesting n/t

[enid602]

26. bern

Too bad for Bernie it's not a caucus state.

[Smarmie Doofus]

28. I'd watch the electronic scanners and touch screens *reeeeeeal* close on this one.

The NYS DEM machine wants this one reeeeal bad.

They do NOT want to lose it.

The Bernie campaign needs lawyers and observers all over the friggin place but esp in NYC area and Buffalo ( Erie County.)

You know... pretty much the only areas in the state that voted for Cuomo over Teachout in last year's primary.

See what I'm sayin' ?

[Pharaoh]

30. well I hope somebodys

fucking on it!

But the Bernie movement has a lot of savvy young kids in it.

Being sixty, I am really hoping the youngsters are stepping up to the plate on this one.

Things will look fairly bleak otherwise.

[Smarmie Doofus]

32. No! I disagree. Just the opposite.

The kids are *fantastic*.... but I'm not sure they have the life experience to recognize how evil people can be, what they can do, and what they can rationalize.

The default position is to give people the benefit of the doubt. Who wants to go around thinking most people are untrustworthy , dishonest and potentially COMPLETELY corruptible?

I sure didn't when I was young.

Now... well.

[SoLeftIAmRight]

31. hillary only goes down

down down down - she only goes down

[azmom]

33. Kick

[Bob41213]

34. It's a good trend

But I don't believe it till I see the results. Michigan was a good surprise but there were many more disappointments. New York would obviously be HUGE.

[mak3cats]

39. The CBS News / You Gov poll issued today has him within 10...
