You can't dismiss every poll because of what happened in Michigan. The Cook County suburbs are much wealthier than the Detroit suburbs and they aren't going to vote for someone who wants to raise taxes through the roof. It's an entirely different ballgame in Illinois.
I don't think Sanders' tax plan matters right now. I really don't.
In MI Clinton and Sanders split 50/50 the $100k-200k income bracket. In fact, all income brackets were basically 50/50.
I get it's a different state, but for her to lead by 30-40 points in IL after losing MI by 1.5%? Come on. I still hold this is a 10-point race. I also believe IL is open primary.
Do you have a link to this poll that says it's a 10 point race?
Considering that the President is from Illinois and Clinton was in his cabinet, it's not hard to believe that Clinton is leading by this much. Plus, Cook County is a huge percentage of the statewide vote and it's heavily minority.
I have no proof this is a 10-point race. I'm just pulling numbers out my ass. But it doesn't seem right that Clinton wins IL by a bigger margin than some southern states. I don't think this is a 30-40 point race. As a Clinton supporter I hope I'm wrong.
Let them believe it's a 30 point race.. It's going to be better for Sanders when it turns out other way.
