New Maryland Poll (Post/Univ of Md) Clinton: 55% Sanders 40%
The Post-U. Md. poll shows Clinton leading Sanders 55 percent to 40 percent among likely Democratic voters.
Maryland is seen as a Clinton stronghold because of its proximity to Washington and because more than one-third of the Democratic electorate is African American, a group that has heavily favored the former secretary of state this year.
She leads Sanders among black voters 63 percent to 33 percent, according to this week’s Post-U. Md. poll, and among women 60 percent to 35 percent. Clinton has even larger advantages among moderate and conservative Democrats (63 percent to 30 percent) and voters ages 50 and older (66 percent to 26 percent).
Mirroring many primaries so far, Sanders performs best with those who are younger, leading Clinton with voters under age 40 by a margin of 61 percent to 38 percent. Sanders runs roughly even with Clinton among white Democratic voters, 46 to 47 percent. The self-described Democratic socialist leaned on a winning margin among whites in each of his four state victories where exit polls were conducted.
