...Emerson isn't a top-tier pollster. They're only ranked C+ by 538, and they called Iowa 51 to 43 for Hillary in a poll done right up to the wire (Jan 28 through Jan 31 for a Feb 1 contest). Still, they'd have to be off by a whole lot more than that to see anything good in this one. We'll have to see if anything happens to substantially shift things in the next month. One thing we've seen this year is that a lot can happen in a month...

She was their senator for 8 years. The first woman that NY sent to the Senate. Bill has his office in NY. The Clinton Foundation is in NY. They live in Chappaqua. Chelsea and her husband live in Manhattan. They obviously have strong ties in the state.

She will also do well in my state of NJ. I also think that she will win PA. She won it by almost 10%in 2008.

I'll be very happy with a +20% win.
