Rather than take the word of a known liberal with dubious credentials. He is an activist for the Democrat Party due to his single issue agenda. Use what he says and compare it to what the US Census describes as the demographics for the voter, by numbers races, incomes and education. Trump trumps the others in nearly every category. Great to make more than $50K per year and have advanced degrees, but there are more of the others. Most voters are the ones that have the most to lose as a result of Obama's failed policies and another third term using his surrogate Hillary, the corrupt liar. Wait, i just described a prerequisite for the Democrat nominees.

MCPO Roger Collins - Master Chief; Reputable pollsters "normalize" their data. For example, if the population was 50% "A" and 50%"B" and the polled population was 75% "A" and 25% "B", then the "B" numbers would be given three times as much weight as the "A" numbers.

On top of that, the link doesn't go to a POLL it goes to a tool that uses the ACTUAL results of the several caucuses. The "projection line" is the percentage of the delegates selected from each state that is required to reach 50%+1 of the delegates at the national conventions. It's pretty hard to "bias" dividing by two.

COL Ted Mc - I suppose I could agree with the statement with the caveat that you used, the term "reputable" posters. When I looked up Mr. Silver's background and proclivities, I do not see what I would call a reputable unbiased pollster.

MCPO Roger Collins - Master Chief; People in the "information provision" business make more money if they are consistently right than if they consistently tell the customer what the customer wants to hear regardless of whether what the customer wants to hear is true or not.
