Sanders has 2-1 edge in West Virginia according to latest poll.

Hillary won 2-1 against Obama in 2008.

That is with Super's included, which can certainly change. Its basically a tie at this point as far as pledged delegates are concerned (Iowa & NV can actually still change as the delegates are officially awarded later in the process, but an estimate of those delegates pretty much puts the pledged delegate totals at a tie)

Not for long though. The count will change dramatically in the next couple of weeks, and looking objectively at the current polling data, Hillary is well positioned to take a significant pledged delegate lead.

Interesting. So I guess Bernie is starting to lose his momentum with younger voters.
While it might be the case, but its worth noting the sample size. The overall sample size is a bit smaller than the sample size we have seen in some of the other polls and exit polls. While that might have minimal difference in the margin of error as the poll as a whole, it does lead to considerably higher margins of error in the age groups and other sub samples of the poll.

The youth vote’s biggest beneficiary by far is Bernie Sanders, who filled venues in Las Vegas with cheering young admirers last week, after winning more than 80 percent of this group in both Iowa and New Hampshire. On Saturday young people made up 18 percent of voters in Nevada’s Democratic caucus, five percentage points more than in 2008. Mr. Sanders again drew more than eight in 10 of these voters. Mrs. Clinton won Nevada with 52.7 percent, besting Mr. Sanders by 5.5 percentage points. But young people were largely responsible for closing what just a month ago had been a more than 20-point lead for her.
Good news!

I have a feeling we will see some good election results in this coming Super Tuesday for Bernie. Even with a lover voter caucus in Nevada due to it being on a Saturday, which is a busy day for anyone in hospitality....which that is basically the Nevada economy, I think we will see a number of close races or wins for Bernie which should signal a long fight between Hillary and Bernie that should last until the very end of the primary.
