The key is how do they determine who is likely and not likely to show up and participate in the Primaries and Caucus.

How Pollsters Decide Who's A 'Likely Voter' Makes A Big Difference In Results
salient part:
Quote:
In testing 14 commonly used ways to identify likely voters, Pew found that any attempt to screen for likely voters is an improvement over including all registered voters, or even all those who say that they intend to vote, "both of which include far too many people who ultimately will not cast a ballot," according to the report.

In other words, they don't know. LOL

Polls are biased based on who they decide to count, and whose answers get thrown out.

Hillary will win rigged primary that has rules which favors her. But she is facing landslide losses in general election where most of America sees this woman for what she is.

So what is your excuse going to be when Sanders wins. Only time will tell, but I suggest getting started on putting something together.

Don't need excuse. Bernie Sanders will not win the 2016 nomination for the DNC unless something takes King Hillary out of the race.

The only thing that will take Hillary out of the race will be losing to Sanders. So start working on your Hillary exuses.

Have we ever had an election in history where both parties are trying to force a "McGovern" down our throats?

Ahh so you watch Fox on a regular basis? I don't.

I recommend that you take lesson from this.

The Des Moines Register says that Sanders' could lose Iowa delegate votes since the college students who account for his poll lead are concentrated in only 3 precincts.
They point out it's very different since Obama ran there because then the students were at home on break. Now they'll be in class on Caucus night:
Islands of college-town support could hurt Sanders
