These polls under report the support of Sen Sanders due to their heavy reliance on past voting involvement (polling previous Democratic primary voters) wile ignoring first time participants and returning participants. Would also like to point out that the rural parts of the state will never vote for any Clinton, especially Hillary but will vote for Sen Sanders even if it's just because he's not Trump or Clinton.
