Arkansas Primary Poll: HRC: 57% Bernie: 25%

Yet another Super Tuesday state:

With about three weeks until Arkansas’ March 1 primary, Presidential contender Hillary Clinton has a commanding lead over Democratic challenger Bernie Sanders, and Ted Cruz has a slight lead in a crowded GOP field.

New polling from Talk Business & Politics and Hendrix College highlights voter attitudes among likely Democratic and Republican voters. The latest poll surveyed 908 likely primary voters – 451 Democrats and 457 Republicans – for the statewide results. The polling was conducted on Thursday, Feb. 4 using IVR technology and has a margin of error of +/-3.3%.

The samples of Republicans and Democrats included frequent primary voters who self-identified as certain (93.5%) or likely (6.5%) to vote in the March 1 election.

Democratic voters were asked:

Q: If the election were today, for which of the following would you vote: Hillary Clinton or Bernie Sanders?

57% Hillary Clinton
25% Bernie Sanders
18% Don’t Know

that would make this figure unsurprising. but on the other hand, it would also indicate that the people who know her well are in her corner. or were the Arkansas years so long ago they don't count anymore?
