Ohio is starting to look very good for Clinton

[vdogg]

Illinois is touch and go, which frankly shocks me. I thought Ohio would be the iffy one and Illinois would be solid. This is a good poll however with a great track record. She actually leads among white voters and has an edge with those who have already voted. If we can take 3 of 5, I'll consider it a very good night.

In Ohio’s Democratic primary, Hillary Clinton currently holds a 54% to 40% lead over Bernie
Sanders. Clinton enjoys a solid edge among non-white voters (66% to 24%), who make up one-fourth of the likely electorate. Clinton also has a small 51% to 45% lead among non-Hispanic whites. Clinton leads among both women (56% to 37%) and men (53% to 44%) in Ohio. Sanders leads among voters under the age of 50 (58% to 36% for Clinton), but Clinton has a solid 73% to 22% advantage among voters age 50 and older.
One-in-ten voters (12%) say they have already cast their ballots in the Democratic primary and another 43% say they have completely decided on their candidate choice. Another 22% have a strong preference but are willing to consider the other candidate, 12% have just a slight preference, and 11% are really undecided at this point. Similar levels of Clinton voters (60%) and Sanders supporters (54%) say they have already voted or that their choice is locked in.

1. I feel opposite

The Chicago machine will deliver for HRC

Ohio will be like Mich. One good thing Kasich may draw a lot of homey Indy votes

2. Not too sure

Sanders is bludgeoning her with Rahm.

[vdogg]

4. But to what effect?

I just don't understand how that attack is working. She has nothing to do with crime in Chicago. She has nothing to do with how Rahm Emmanuel handles crime in Chicago. She has nothing to do with his current term in office, them knowing each other in the past is irrelevant. I just don't understand it.

5. Corrupted establishment

He's working the corruption and crime angle by associating her with Rahm, who is connected to both Obama and Bill Clinton. It's design to tap into #blm issues and siphon off her AA votes.

6. "6 Degrees of Rahm," eh? Such a dishonest negative attack--just the kind BS promised he'd never do.

9. but Sanders is doing it..

I listened to one his speeches --He is hitting her with Rahm like he is doing with trade .

[vdogg]

3. That was my initial assessment a week ago

But I'm changing my mind as more data comes in.

8. Is there still a machine in Chicago?

The Mayor is particularly unpopular which might also be hurting Hillary.

7. Outside of FL and NC I expect neck and neck

within less than 3 pts either way. He could do a little better in MO but she'll still be creaming him delegate wise.

10. I am surprised that

IL is so close also. But after MI and the way Sanders has been hitting her with trade, I should not be. The trade hit-on-Hillary by Sanders-- issue has been constant.
