“After her win in New York this week, these numbers in nearby Pennsylvania suggest that the entire northeast is looking pretty good for the Clinton campaign,” said Patrick Murray, director of the Monmouth University Polling Institute.

Here's the CT congressional delegation (hint-it's ALL D):

Here's the RI congressional delegation (hint-it's ALL D):

If you'd bother to have read the link, you would have learned that PA is a "swing state." They have one D and one R senator, and a mix of D and R legislators in the House:

Can't take you seriously when you make uninformed comments like that.

But, we can talk about it beforehand, too. In just a week, we'll know how PA and the other four states voted. But, this is DU. We like to talk about these things here. That was an interesting poll, too. Polls are always interesting.

As we saw, the polling for NY was pretty accurate, for the most part. The polling companies have adjusted their methods since they got it so wrong recently in MI. You can expect them to be more accurate in their predictions now. They may still get something wrong, but we'll find out next week.
