New Georgia Poll: Clinton: 72% Sanders: 20%

Democrat Hillary Clinton and Republican Donald Trump maintained their commanding leads over their opponents ahead of the state’s March 1 primary, according to Landmark Communications/Rosetta Stone polls commissioned by Channel 2 Action News.

A survey of 700 likely Democratic voters shows Clinton is backed by 72 percent of voters while Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders garnered just 20 percent. About 8 percent were undecided, and the margin of error was 4 percentage points.

You let Democrats from all over the country pick their candidate. Who cares who wins what states in the general election?

Selective reading?

"The former secretary of state gets 36.4 percent to Sanders’ 25.5 percent in the poll. Another 38.1 percent said they didn’t know who they would support."
