Polls should also catch indys and reps that intend to vote Dem. BootinUp May 2016 #3
We'll see if that 25% was represented in the polling. yallerdawg May 2016 #5

Nomination, does that translate in non votes? Don't voters at this point in the race want to be part of a winning team? I'd want to be part of a historic vote at this point...

it's been 55-45% for Hillary in Indiana, maybe narrowing a little in polls.

Now throw in 25% of voters independent and Republican - corrupting Democratic results again.

This is my issue with open primaries. They are open to misrepresenting who we want to be the nominee.

Thank God for superdelegates!

I expect the result to be close but Hillary for the win.

What the M$M is peddling is surprise at these exit polling numbers so in favor of Sanders.

But if 1 out of 4 is a Bernie vote, and the other 75% is close to a spilt, it is not going to be a pleasant night.

I hope, hope, hope you are right, and I am just pessimistic - deluded again by the pundits!
