Poll: Clinton maintains double-digit lead in NY

According to a Quinnipiac University survey released Tuesday, Clinton takes 53 percent support to Sanders’s 40 percent ahead of the critical primary on April 19.

That’s essentially unchanged from the same poll at the end of March, when Clinton led 54 to 42 percent.

Clinton’s lead in New York is solidified by overwhelming support among black voters; she leads among that demographic 65 to 28 percent.


Sanders has a strong contingent of black surrogates and supporters working on his behalf in New York, including director Spike Lee and civil rights icon Harry Belafonte, but so far he has been unable to cut into Clinton’s huge advantage there.
