Hillary-ClintonPennsylvania Democrats aren’t exactly “feeling the Bern”.

According to the latest Franklin & Marshall poll, the Vermont Senator has his supporters but the former Secretary of State is still the clear leader.

Hillary Clinton is the 2016 presidential choice of 52% of PA Democrats while Bernie Sanders comes in a distant second with 18%.

The result isn’t a major surprise as Clinton has many ties to the Keystone State. Her father was born in Scranton and she beat Barack Obama in their 2008 contest here. She is also in the middle of a hot streak.

1. Many months to go

Many months for Bernie to get more exposure, and more time for Hillary's skeletons to be exposed. Stay tuned.

AGE. What was your age on your last birthday?
3% 18-24
5% 25-34
8% 35-44
17% 45-54
27% 55-64
40% 65 and older

Only 16% under age 44. 84% over age 44, 40% of that over 65.

What about all these young people.

4. They did do some weighting of answers so that the poll

would more accurately reflect the actual age distribution of the relevant voters. I worry, though, that the sample for particular age groups was so small that it may not be representative of those age groups. The 3% 18-24 is only 3 people, for example. Giving greater weight to their answer won't help if they are not a representative sample of their age group.
