Sen. Bernie Sanders achieved his first lead over former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in a new USC Dornsife/Los Angeles Times poll released on Thursday. Sanders drew support from 44% of eligible Democratic voters, versus 43% for Clinton. The result, within the poll’s 2.9% margin of error, is yet another statistical dead heat in the California primary — the fourth in less than two weeks. However, among voters with the highest propensity to vote, Clinton leads 49% to 39%.
The Times reports that Sanders is succeeding by winning among minority voters — who have, until now, been Clinton’s firewall:
Hillary Clinton’s popularity has slumped in California under an unrelenting challenge from Bernie Sanders, who has succeeded in breaching the demographic wall Clinton had counted on to protect her in the state’s presidential primary…
As he has done across the country this primary season, Sanders commands the support of younger voters by huge margins in advance of Tuesday’s primary — even among Latinos and Asians, voter groups that Clinton easily won when she ran eight years ago. Many of his backers come from a large pool of voters who have registered for the first time in the weeks before the election.
Among Latino voters in particular, the poll shows a 44%-44% tie.

‘10% of Sanders’ Voters Would Vote For Trump’
Makes sense...
How can she lose California and insist she’s legit?
I am in Connecticut, I see almost no sign of support for Hillary. In fact I see more evidence of support for Trump than her. I see more Bernie Sanders bumper stickers than anyone else. Is she really getting the votes that they claim?
I just did some quick research. In 2008 in the CA primary, hillary beat Obama 51% to 43%, with John Edwards getting a few percentage points. I don’t have a clue why Sanders and Trump aren’t using this as a talking point. If hillary gets less than 51% in CA, that’s even worse than when she dropped out before the convention. How can she be doing worse than she was when she dropped out and still say she should be the nominee?
2008 KY Primary =>
Clinton 459,511; 65.48%
Obama 209,954; 29.92%

If you’re a Democrat and can’t win an election in California, your prospects for becoming President are about as good as having leftover pizza after a weight watchers meeting.
She's gonna lose in a way that would make even a Republican loser envious.
Time to upgrade voter fraud initiative status from “inactive” (not even needed in California) to FULL POWER
This is not insignificant-—based on 2012 numbers, it would amount to about 35,000 to Trump and 35,000 from Cankles. Still, Zero’s margin in 2012 was 3 million.
Now, if Trump flips a couple hundred thousand other independent voters, if Cankles only gets 75% of the total Obama had-— say, 6+ million-—and another 75,000 Dinobernie supporters come on board, tens with those “IFs” CA could be tight.
Somehow-—whether through Cankles attrition, GOP turnout, or Indie/crossovers, Trump has to overcome about 3m votes there. Not impossible, but very tough.
So how is her ground game vs Bernie's and can she steal it like she did Kentucky is the question. Please opine if you have some insight on this...
My perception and nothing more.
“‘10% of Sanders’ Voters Would Vote For Trump’

So would that translate into 5% of California dimoKKKTATS will vote for Trump?
