Not sure where you got that idea from.

A single poll in New Hampshire will not measure Bernie's minority support because there aren't very many minorities in New Hampshire.

The recent poll from PPP does show that Bernie continues to struggle attracting minorities.

If you want to win the presidency as a Dem, you will need minorities. It's not enough to only attract liberal whites.
