Related: About this forumLA Times Poll: Bernie 44, Hillary 43 (Yeah, it's the same poll linked in the other thread)
http://www.latimes.com/politics/la-pol-ca-latimes-presidential-primary-poll-20160602-snap-story.htmlThe Vermont senator has battled Clinton to a draw among all voters eligible for the Democratic primary, with 44% siding with him to 43% for Clinton. That represented a nine-point swing from a USC/Los Angeles Times poll in March, in which Clinton led handily.
Here's the *actual* poll results. Unlike the other thread that singles out what they call "reliable voters", this one includes everybody.

I think someone has little to no understanding of political polling if they tout RVs over LVs.

Good News. Given Sanders' usual performance, we may expect him to carry the state 60 - 40 at least.

All polls in open primary states have underestimated Sanders by 10 % at least

That whole unreliable thing makes it hard to use predicatively.

(4,311 posts)15. This is another example
of normal things that everyone has understood for years about elections suddenly being both CORRUPT and ATTACKING BERNIE. Along with deadlines for registrations, calling the presumptive nominee before the convention based on SD and PD counts, and sample ballots. And loads of other examples.
Eligible voters is a MUCH less reliable metric than likely voters. This is how it is done!
