Bernie Sanders Leads Hillary Clinton In Massachusetts Primary Poll
BOSTON (CBS) – After his decisive victory in neighboring New Hampshire, Bernie Sanders also leads Hillary Clinton in Massachusetts, according to a new poll released ahead of the state's presidential primary.
The Vermont senator holds a 49-42 advantage over the former Secretary of State, according to a Public Policy Polling survey published Wednesday.
Massachusetts voters head to the polls on March 1.
The survey revealed that Bay Staters trust Clinton over Sanders on who would be a good commander-in-chief, and on race relations, immigration and women's issues. But Sanders has a large advantage over Clinton on the issues of cracking down on Wall Street and raising the incomes of average Americans, results show.
On The Issues: Balancing The Burden Of Income Inequality
Public Policy Polling says Clinton is still ahead in 10 of the 12 early March primaries, whereas Sanders only leads in Vermont and Massachusetts for now.
