US democratic primaries. Hilary clinton feeling the Bern
Berni Sanders
‘Quinnipiac poll found that Sanders would fare better than Clinton in hypothetical general-election matchups’
.. what’s up with this slow churning armada of a campaign? They don’t appear to be that nimble in reacting to developments. 2008 deja vu?
Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vermont) closed a 30-point gap with former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to virtually tie her in a new national survey published Friday.
The poll from Quinnipiac University, found Clinton leading Sanders among national Democratic primary voters, 44% to 42%.
That was a wild swing from a mid-December Quinnipiac poll that found Clinton leading 61% to 30% nationally over Sanders.

“Democrats nationwide are feeling the Bern as Sen. Bernie Sanders closes a 31-point gap to tie Secretary Hillary Clinton,” said Tim Malloy, the assistant director of the Quinnipiac poll.
The Quinnipiac survey is the most bullish for Sanders on a national scale recently. Clinton remained ahead of Sanders in a Real Clear Politics average of recent national surveys by about 13 points.
Still, the Friday survey presented fresh signs of momentum for Sanders, who surprised much of the political world when he came close to overtaking clinton in the iowa causes earlier in the week.
