Bernie Gains 11 Points among Women, 16 among Minorities in One Month!

[sabrina 1]

No wonder they don't want Debates. Even though they did everything they could to make sure the least number of people watched, Bernie still benefited enormously from the exposure.

Looks like all those UNSCIENTIFIC polls showing Bernie the overwhelming winner shouldn't have been dismissed so lightly.

After all the "Bernie Bro" talk, Sanders has gained 11 points with women voters since October.

1. Not surprising really.

We have argued all along that as he gets out there, gains name recognition, does well in a few debates and connects with various groups that his support will increase.

There have been a lot of dog whistle racist comments about Killer Mike this morning. That tells me just how serious a blow his rousing and passionate introductory speech actually was.

2. Haven't seen anything negative on Mike so far but I don't doubt it. I'm sure there is a whole lot

of 'opposition research' going on right now.

That's all they seem to have, smears and personal attacks.

Maybe if the improved their candidate's position on the issues, talked more about what people really care about, as Bernie does, rather than engaging in the same old negative campaign nonsense that people now so despise, they could save a whole lot of those Corp funds and spend them on something positive for a change.

3. A few very vocal proponents of Clinton's here

are doing it. Pay attention and you will catch their derision around 'soul food' and 'rapping'.

Isn't it? It is hard to wade through GDP with all of the smears, mockery, and attacking.

5. Oh, here, well racism has been apparent among a small group for quite a while here. I believe

I have pointed it out on occasion. Didn't go over very well as you can imagine. But when it's that obvious, well someone has to point it out.

I can't think of anything more racist and despicable than to take serious issues, that are obviously only of 'concern' during political campaigns and USE them for political purposes.

I have taken note of the history on the issues that suddenly became of 'concern' once the primary season started and noticed a serious lack of concern up to that point.

None of it has worked though. Bernie's record on Civil Rights has always been his best weapon again the lies and distortions.

13. Yes, and I cannot wait...

...to experience the excitement, enthusiasm and rise of Bernie in Iowa--as he speaks at rallies, town halls and other events throughout the state. He is going to win the Iowa caucuses, that I know.

I watched Obama do it. Obama was behind 10 points at this time. Bernie is rising even faster than Obama did. According to that latest CBS Battleground poll that was released yesterday, Bernie is only behind by 6. FABULOUS!

I'm going to make phone calls, canvas, drive Bernie supporters to the caucus--and also give a speech at my own caucus for Bernie. I'll do my part to help him sweep these caucuses!

It's going to be like a big party. Can't wait for our two kids to hear Bernie speak!

Let's get this campaign rolling!!!!

4. At the same time

Hillary lost 6 points among women and 11 points among POC.

[sabrina 1]

6. Yes, so all the negative campaigning fails miserably as Bernie's best weapon, his record on Civil

Rights becomes known to the voters. Exactly what they were trying to hide and distort.

7. Ah-ha - so this is why the HRCers have their hair on fire spewing the Rand Paul BS

Makes perfect sense.............

Crystal clear.

9. I'm sure it is! They would do better to try to convince people why their candidate should get their

votes but I guess they can't??

8. An enthusiastic DU Rec for Killer Mike and his killer intro for Sanders

I am hoping this goes viral, and will be be helping by posting to all the Social media I have access to.
I suggest you do the same.

[sabrina 1]

10. It is going viral. Bernie can now focus on increasing his name recognition among minorities, which

has already doubled his numbers in the minority community in just on month. He's got some great people to work with him on that.

11. HUGE K & R !!! - THANK YOU !!!

[PotatoChip]

12. Sabrina, your posts are always a ray of sunshine.

Loving those poll numbers too!

[Plucketeer]

20. I'll second that!

And BTW, I listened to Killer Mike and immediately put that vid on my FB page.

[Javaman]

14. Bernie gaining in all categories except one...

Hillary gained in only 3 categories.

[thereismore]

15. People of color: Hillary -11%, Bernie +16% in a month. nt

[blackspade]

16. He is still taking a beating from the 50+ crowd.

That is very strange. I would think a lot of his policy positions would be super popular with them as well.
He is making some great progress, especially with younger voters, minorities, and liberals.

[Dont call me Shirley]

17. He's got this 50+ and my 50+ spouse.

[blackspade]

18. And my parents and inlaws.

But nationally that needs a turn around.

[Dont call me Shirley]

21. It will. Because Social Security and Medicare are on the table.

[aspirant]

22. I would hope he would expand on "expanding SS"

Specifics: doing away with the cap would bring in (X) amount into the SS fund. Based on the number of SS recipients, each retiree will receive $200 (or whatever the amount) more/month.

Give them something to chew on vs Hills SS gobbly-goop

29. The Under-50's Just Aren't Scared Enough!

Better to get to work ginning up their fear and hatred of the unknown baddie who may be plotting against them at this very moment.

[Betty Karlson]

19. Great news.

Thanks for confirming what non-MSM polls have told us all along.

[sabrina 1]

25. i think it's prbably a lot better than this. This is just people who are registered to vote

mosly Dems or Dem leaning. Repubs eg are not reflected tin this poll, non voters now energized and working for Bernie etc. Libertarians for Benie etc. Still you are correct, I believe all those polls give a good picture of the impact he's having.

[Betty Karlson]

27. The status quo may be in for a rude awakening. eom

[Enthusiast]

23. Giant kick and recommend!

[Hepburn]

24. Yuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge!

Yay, Bernie!

[sabrina 1]

28. Wait 'til next month! Lol! Go Bernie!
