If the election were a popularity contestor even a likability competitionBernie Sanders would have this thing in the bag. The senator from Vermont is, according to a recent poll from the Associated Press-Gfk, Americas most liked candidate, across party lines, of any competitor in the running. Hes also the only presidential contender most Americans view as at least somewhat honest, compassionate [and] civil.
The poll, conducted March 31-April 4, found that 48 percent of Americans have a favorable view of Sanders, while 39 percent view him unfavorably. Compare that with delegate leaders Trump and Clinton, whose unfavorable ratings blow Sanders out of the water. Fifty-five percent of Americans say they have unfavorable views of Clinton, while 40 percent say they have a favorable take.
