Last edited Wed Sep 23, 2015, 06:58 PM - Edit history (1)

From my reading of this--it is a 'get in Biden' perspective (of the author)!!

.....The poll of 1,001 adults, including 375 registered Democrats and Democrat-leaners, was conducted Sept. 18-21 for Bloomberg Politics by Selzer & Co. of Des Moines, Iowa. The overall sample has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.1 percentage points, while the Democratic sample has a margin of error of plus or minus 5.1 percentage points.

And Hillary is winning. If Biden did enter the race Bernie would be an automatic afterthought and Hillary would still win.

A brand new Zogby Analytics Poll of 515 likely Democratic primary/caucus voters nationwide, with a margin of sampling error of +/- 4.3 percentage points, shows that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton holds a huge lead over all of her rivals for the nomination. The new poll, conducted online September 18 and 19, has Mrs. Clinton leading Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders 52% to 24%, with former Maryland Governor Martin O’Malley at 3%, former Virginia Senator Jim Webb with 2%, and 19% either undecided or choosing another candidate.

Mrs. Clinton leads by wide margins among men (46% to 29%) and women (58% to 20%), Democrats (60% to 21%), liberals (63% to 29%), moderates (48% to 26%), conservatives (46% to 17%), Hispanics (52% to 24%) and African Americans (65% to 20%). She and Mr. Sanders are close only among independents with Mrs. Clinton at 33% to Mr. Sanders’ 31% and 31% undecided.

When Vice President Joe Biden, who has not indicated his intentions yet, is added in, the needle moves but Mrs. Clinton still remains heavily in the lead with 44% to Mr. Biden’s and Mr. Sander’s 18% each, Mr. O’Malley’s 4% and Mr. Webb’s 3%...............

9. I usually don't put much stock in "online" polls. I don't think they're random enough. You have to

sign up to participate. I'd love to hear Nate Silver's take on online polling. I have no doubt that Uncle Joe might pull some small support from Hillary, but I actually wish he'd make up his mind so they can stop publishing this confused polling data. Thanks for keeping us informed & up to date.

10. Elon Poll: N.C. primary voters favor Trump and Clinton, with a twist

The first Elon University Poll of the fall shows that North Carolina Republicans currently favor real estate mogul Donald Trump more than other GOP presidential hopefuls in the race for the White House, but defeating Democrat Hillary Clinton in the Tar Heel State next fall may require another nominee.

Real estate mogul Donald Trump currently carries the most support among Republicans in the state’s upcoming presidential primary election, but according to the latest Elon University Poll, Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton would top Trump among North Carolina voters if the general election were held today.


Hillary Clinton: 53 percent
Bernie Sanders: 23 percent
Jim Webb: 2 percent
Lincoln Chafee: 1 percent
Lawrence Lessig: 1 percent
Martin O’Malley: .2 percent



Seventeen percent of Democrats and Democratic-leaning registered voters said they were undecided on which candidate they will support.

11. Sanders supporters must be disappointed

There is simply no way that Sanders will be the Democratic nominee. If Clinton drops out, Biden will win easily .
