(68,868 posts)Polling is 11-15 points. I see it as an 18-19 point race.

(68,868 posts)2008 was a better predictor for Wisconsin than the polls.
But an 8 point victory is still a back breaker for Sanders, so 10-14 is just fine.

(6,437 posts)Easiest way to not deal with the complicated NY rules is to build off what other firms are doing.
I think Clinton by 10-20% is a reasonable range for outcomes.

(68,868 posts)with black voters but over performs Obama overall by 7-10 points nevertheless.
I also wonder if there are people who ID as registered Democrats but actually aren't.
In the 2008 primary about 10% of exit poll respondents ID'd as independents.
8% wouldn't surprise me. Neither would 21%.
