New York Hates Ted Cruz; Trump, Clinton Lead Big

On the Democratic side Hillary Clinton's leading with 51% to 40% for Bernie Sanders.

Clinton benefits from more committed support than Sanders- 88% of her voters say they'll definitely cast their ballots for her, compared to 71% of Sanders backers who say the same. All the normal splits present themselves in New York. Clinton is dominant with women (57/34), but trails slightly with men (47/44). The race is close among white voters- a 47/43 Clinton lead- while she has much more emphatic advantages with Hispanics (66/28) and African Americans (61/32). Sanders is ahead with younger voters (56/40), but Clinton's up by even more with seniors (63/27). Clinton's lead is widest in New York City (55/38), followed by the suburbs (51/40), and the race is effectively tied upstate (47/44).

New York is solidly blue for the general election no matter who the candidates are. Donald Trump is hated in his home state, with a 30/65 favorability rating. He trails Clinton by 20 (55/35) and Sanders by 25 (58/33).

CALCULUS: The NRA Spent Thousands to Get Bernie Elected — Then He Voted With Them
By Susan Madrak
April 10, 2016

For the entire 2016 election, voters have been subjected to an insistent narrative that Bernie Sanders is a model of progressive purity while Hillary Clinton is an unprincipled, calculating politician in the pocket of special interests. We strongly reject that false frame and have repeatedly argued that all politicians make difficult choices, some good, some not so good. Bernie isn’t exempt from that reality.

Bernie’s history on guns is hardly the model of progressive purity. During a recent Morning Joe appearance, he was defensive when asked to comment on New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s assessment that on gun manufacturer immunity, Bernie made “a political decision on a moral issue.”
