The April 2016 Franklin & Marshall College Poll of Pennsylvania registered voters
reveals clear front runners in the presidential nominating contests. The Democratic presidential
primary race in Pennsylvania has changed little since January. The poll shows Hillary Clinton
with a sizable lead over Bernie Sanders, 58% to 31%.

Crying? That would be bearable. It's the whimpering and wailing that are so god-awful irritating. Surya Gayatri Apr 2016 #10

for Hillary. She won it in 2008, even with Obama crushing her in Philly. Since she's likely to win BOTH urban and rural areas this time around, I think it could be a big win for her.

They may not normally participate in the primaries, but they are batteground GE states with large Electoral College prizes. This means that polling methods in these states are solid and tested over time.

no cell service from the one room schoolhouse that is our polling place. So I won't be able to post during the day, but when I get home, I will post results/impressions.

The local news this morning says PA will go for Hillary, but not mentioning any margins.

I hope Sanders got Frequent Flyer miles for his trip to Rome; he doesn't appear to have gotten much else.

But a margin even half that size would be solid beat down.
