41.5 doesn't round up to 44.

(28,476 posts)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.

(28,476 posts)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.

(28,476 posts)Thought you might want to see numbers more current than last November. Reported today in the Boston Globe, Sanders 49% to Clinton's 42%.
