Arkansas Poll-Clinton 57% (+10) Sanders 25% (-17)






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

You might think that the state where Hillary Clinton’s husband was governor would be voting overwhelmingly in favor of the former Secretary of State. It does not appear that way, as she has a 5 point lead over Bernie Sanders, 47-42%. This absolutely has to be concerning for the Clinton campaign, which should be able to reliably count on most states in the South breaking her way significantly

but the comparison isn't since the Overtime poll is garbage. It also isn't valid to compare different polls even if both are not garbage.
