Monmouth Poll: HRC: 55% (+3) BS: 37% (no change) Nationally

Turning to the Democratic nomination contest, the poll found that a majority of voters (55%) who
identify or lean toward the Democratic Party prefer Hillary Clinton as the nominee, compared to 37%
who support Bernie Sanders. These results are basically unchanged from January when Clinton held a
52% to 37% lead over Sanders. Clinton has the advantage among both female (59% to 32%) and male
(51% to 44%) Democrats. She also enjoys solid support from traditional Democratic identifiers (61% to
31% for Sanders) and voters age 50 and older (69% to 22%).

Sanders is still getting more support than Clinton from leaning Democratic voters (56% to 37%
for Clinton) and voters under 50 years old (54% to 39%). Two-thirds of Sanders supporters say they
would definitely (28%) or probably (37%) vote for Clinton in November if she became the nominee, but
with their candidate still in the hunt, another 11% say they probably would not vote for Clinton and 20%
say they definitely would not vote for her if she became the nominee.

Hillary 57%, Bernie 43%.

I'd say this is a fairly reliable poll based on the real votes. And not good for the underdog!
