Sanders has 13-point lead in North Carolina ahead of Super Tuesday: poll

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) leads the Democratic presidential primary field in North Carolina, according to a new poll released a day before voters cast their ballots.

Sanders has 31 percent support in North Carolina among registered voters who self-identified as Democratic and unaffiliated voters who said they would participate in the Democratic primary, according to a High Point University poll released Monday.

Billionaire Michael Bloomberg, the former New York City mayor, sits in second place, trailing Sanders by 13 points, with 18 percent support among registered voters, based on the poll.

Former Vice President Joe Biden, who is trying to build momentum after winning in neighboring South Carolina on Saturday, is not far behind in third at 14 percent support, with Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) closely trailing in fourth at 11 percent, based on the poll.

There’s no way Bernie walks out of NC with a win like that now. A squeaker? Maybe.

I say that with affection. I married one. I worked there. But I can’t even see the Research Triangle going full on Bernie. And a huge number of them are from out of state.

Poll was taken from Feb 21 to 28.

That makes it meaningless. It predates SC, and it predates Amy and Pete leaving the race.

As noted by others, projections made and polls taken before SC are now obsolete.
