New Tar Heel State Poll -HRC 60% (-1) SBS 21% (-3) MOM 10% (+5)

[DemocratSinceBirth]

Things are stable on the Democratic side in North Carolina. Hillary Clinton leads with
60% to 21% for Bernie Sanders and 10% for Martin O'Malley. Clinton led by a similar
61/24 margin on our last poll in the state. If there's a momentum candidate it's O'Malley,
whose support has doubled from 5% to 10%.
African Americans are the key to Clinton's dominance in the state. She polls at 79% with
them to 9% for Sanders and 7% for O'Malley. Clinton's 49/27 lead over Sanders with
white voters isn't all that different from the national picture- it's Clinton's overwhelming
dominance with black voters and their prevalence in the North Carolina electorate that
makes her such a strong front runner in the state. Those numbers don't bode particularly
well for Sanders in other southern states either. Beyond leading across the board racially
Clinton also leads with liberals, moderates, men, women, older voters, and younger
voters alike among North Carolina Democrats

Big lights will inspire you
Hear it from New York, New York, New York!

7. But-But-But all those liberals, moderates, men, women, older voters, and younger

voters in North Carolina who overwhelmingly support Hillary Clinton are really just Republicans!

Well, according to one DUer, that is.

[JaneyVee]

8. MONUMENTAL LEAD.

K and R

11. Tar Heels for Hillary!! Great News! K & R nt

[Agnosticsherbet]

16. O'Malley benefited mostly from Sanders, as the undecideds in the poll only dropped by 1% from 10%

to 9%.

It appears that, for the most part, we do see a very stable race.

He wrote it while he was recording his first album and hanging out with the Beatles in London. Saw him last year and he is one of the best singer songwriters of his generation.

35. Bernie can't catch up no matter how hard he tries!

There is no "mercy rule" in primaries ... but this thing will be over before the end of March.
