Oklahoma- Clinton 44 Sanders 28





Oklahoma voters continue to favor Donald Trump among Republican presidential candidates, and Hillary Clinton is the pick over Bernie Sanders among Democrats and independents in a SoonerPoll.com released Tuesday.

Trump was at 30 percent, compared to 25 percent for Ted Cruz and 21 percent for Marco Rubio, who was up from single digits late last year.

Clinton was the choice of 41.5 percent of Democrats and independents who said they intend to vote in the Democratic primary. Bernie Sanders was at 28 percent, and another 28 percent was undecided.

Oklahoma's presidential primary is March 1.

"Clinton was the choice of 41.5 percent of Democrats and independents who said they intend to vote in the Democratic primary. Bernie Sanders was at 28 percent, and another 28 percent was undecided."

41.5 doesn't round up to 44.

They are less than three weeks away from voting and more than a quarter are still undecided.

attended an organizing meeting for Bernie Sanders last night and the big room was packed with volunteers. She said that the organizer remarked that they were a bigger crowd than the original call for volunteers in Iowa.

You got anything recent from Massachusetts? Because I live in one of the most conservative parts of the state and every liberal I know is swinging toward Sanders.

since you're the one who's citing her popularity with a four-month old article. I'm just reporting what I'm seeing on the ground in my hometown. But you have to know that it's a new campaign for both Clinton and Sanders. People reached by pollsters are more likely to be older and have landlines; that demographic is holding for Clinton. All other demographics are shifting toward Sanders. What was accepted wisdom in November can no longer be assumed. Since Massachusetts' primary isn't for weeks, it's unlikely we'll see much reporting on polling here until much closer.
