Quinnipiac Poll: HRC leads BS 51-42 in Connecticut

(and she is bound to get a boost from the NY landslide):
Clinton-Sanders

There are wide gender and racial gaps among likely Democratic primary voters as women back Clinton 55 - 38 percent while men are divided, with 50 percent for Sanders and 45 percent for Clinton. White voters are divided with 49 percent for Clinton and 47 percent for Sanders, while black voters back Clinton 66 - 25 percent.

Sanders leads 54 - 43 percent among very liberal Democrats. Somewhat liberal Democrats go 51 percent for Clinton and 45 percent for Sanders. Moderate/conservative Democrats back Clinton 56 - 36 percent.

Sanders leads 73 - 26 percent among voters 18 - 34 years old, while Clinton leads among older Democrats.

A total of 67 percent of Democratic voters have a strongly or somewhat favorable opinion of Clinton, with 27 percent somewhat or strongly unfavorable. Sanders gets a 66 - 18 percent favorability rating.

From April 12 - 18, Quinnipiac University surveyed 823 Connecticut likely Republican primary voters with a margin of error of +/- 3.4 percentage points and 1,037 likely Democratic primary voters with a margin of error of +/- 3 percentage points. Live interviewers call land lines and cell phones.

Although my city and county (Danbury/Fairfield) are a bit more pink than the rest of CT, I think she'll do well here. Can't wait for next Tuesday, and hoping that a CT victory will finally push BS to see the truth of his futility!
