Brown University Rhode Island poll: HRC leads by 9

lots of undecideds thought in this poll:

In the Democratic primary race, Hillary Clinton leads Bernie Sanders 43 to 34 percent with 16 percent undecided. Sanders leads among voters under the age of 45, with 48 percent favoring him to Clinton’s 34 percent. Clinton claims 52 percent of voters age 65 and older, with 23 percent for Sanders. Women strongly favor Clinton, at 47 percent versus 30 percent for Sanders. Among men, Clinton received 39 percent of the likely vote to Sanders’ 38 percent. Clinton’s strongest support lies with African American voters, at 63 percent, to 13 percent for Sanders. A majority of Latino voters favor Clinton, 55 percent to 36 percent for Sanders. Among white voters, Clinton’s lead is less decisive: 42 percent to Sanders’ 35 percent.

One striking feature of both primary races is that a large number of undecided voters are among those likely to vote: 17 percent of Republicans and 16 percent of Democrats were not sure which candidate they will vote for on Tuesday. Clinton and Trump each hold a slim majority among affiliated voters.

Among unaffiliated voters planning to vote in the Democratic primary, 42 percent favored Sanders, 22 percent favored Clinton and 24 percent are undecided.

I'm thinking RI might be close, but hopefully a win for HRC (like neighboring Massachusetts).

A five state sweep and he can start getting ready to suspend his campaign.
