Congratulations to Hillary and her Team!!

..................

Things are stable on the Democratic side in North Carolina. Hillary Clinton leads with 60% to 21% for Bernie Sanders and 10% for Martin O'Malley. Clinton led by a similar 61/24 margin on our last poll in the state. If there's a momentum candidate it's O'Malley, whose support has doubled from 5% to 10%.

African Americans are the key to Clinton's dominance in the state. She polls at 79% with them to 9% for Sanders and 7% for O'Malley. Clinton's 49/27 lead over Sanders with white voters isn't all that different from the national picture- it's Clinton's overwhelming dominance with black voters and their prevalence in the North Carolina electorate that makes her such a strong front runner in the state. Those numbers don't bode particularly well for Sanders in other southern states either. Beyond leading across the board racially Clinton also leads with liberals, moderates, men, women, older voters, and younger voters alike among North Carolina Democrats.

And don't forget... "Killer Mike just won the election for Bernie." They are just a bit behind schedule, apparently.
