New Pennsylvania Poll (CBS): Clinton 51 - Sanders 43

http://www.cbsnews.com/news/poll-donald-trump-hillary-clinton-party-front-runners-lead-in-pennsylvania-indiana/

To Pennsylvania Democratic voters, Sanders is seen more as the candidate who authentic, honest, and understands people like them. But Clinton is seen as more electable, more effective, and more specific about her policies. When asked to choose, Democratic voters in Pennsylvania tend to look first for a candidate who agrees with them on the details of policy before they look for one they like personally.

I really am surprised that it is this close in PA. nt Jitter65 Apr 2016 #1
It's not. CBS polls from NY were also closer, and were subsequently way off the mark. nt IamMab Apr 2016 #2

I hope that Clinton supporters will be happy when they steal the votes in PA as well.

He's (more than likely) losing the second biggest delegate state of the night, MD, by a wide margin and DE. He can afford to lose PA, and he definitely can't lose by double digits.
