Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) leads former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton by eight percentage points in Wisconsin, reversing the six-point advantage that Clinton enjoyed in the state only two weeks ago, according to an Emerson College Polling Society survey released Monday.
The poll shows support for Sanders at 51 percent, with Clinton at 43 percent. This represents a significant shift in the race since the previous Emerson poll taken in mid-March, which showed Clinton at 50 percent to Sanders’ 44 percent.
These results are consistent with the results of most recent polling which has shown Sanders leading in the state, although none have shown him leading by a margin this wide. Other polls have shown Clinton in the lead, however, sometimes by as much as six percentage points.
Tuesday’s primary in Wisconsin will come on the heels of several primary victories for Sanders, albeit in an environment where Clinton still leads most national polls and enjoys a deepening mathematical advantage in apportioned delegates.
TPM’s PollTracker Average shows Sanders at 50.3 percent and Clinton at 44.3 percent in Wisconsin.
The Emerson poll was carried out using an automatic phone system form March 30-April 3. Pollsters surveyed 542 people likely to vote in the Democratic primary, with a margin of error of 4.2 percentage points.

I voted for Bernie. I voted for Kucinich in 2008, and I voted for Nader in 2000. (Not proud of that last one, I was too old even then to be so naive.)
Even so, I am getting sick of attacks from right wing sources on Hillary from Bernie supporters.Tip: even dumb right wing baggers can figure out how to post their sewage on Huff, Kos, and other liberal aggregator sites.
Let the paranoid hate-filled rantings of unbalanced HRC supporters commence!
Oops, too late.
thanx bud.
Go Bernie go!
