A new poll shows Bernie Sanders is massively more electable than Hillary
Clinton in a general election. It keeps getting better for Bernie in
these national head-to-heads. Cenk Uygur, host of the The Young Turks,
breaks it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
"Either
Democratic presidential candidate could handily defeat Republican
frontrunner Donald Trump in the general election, according to a new
CNN/ORC poll.
Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton leads
Trump 52 percent to 44 percent among registered voters and Sen. Bernie
Sanders (I-Vt.) leads Trump 55 percent to 43 percent, according to the
poll.
These estimates line up with other polling data -- HuffPost
Pollster's average has shown Clinton and Sanders polling higher than
Trump, although prinmary poll matchups aren't predictive of what will
happen once the general election campaigns start.
But if Sens.
Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) or Ted Cruz (R-Texas) were nominated instead of
Trump, Clinton might face more of an uphill battle, according to the
poll -- Rubio tops Clinton at 50 percent to 47 percent and Cruz slightly
leads 49 percent to 48 percent.
Sanders, meanwhile, holds a
steady lead over all top three Republican candidates in the poll -- 57
percent to 40 percent against Cruz, 55 percent to 43 percent against
Trump, and 53 percent to 45 percent against Rubio.”
