Sestak 41 (+8)
McGinty 31 (+14)
Fetterman 9 (-6)

As expected, the Obama/Biden endorsement helped McGinty a lot, but Sestak is holding his own. There's some interesting dynamics here with regards to the presidential race. Partly why I expect Sestak to win is that he's in the best position to appeal to both Clinton and Sanders voters. Fetterman is a Bernie guy through and through, but he's not gaining any traction. Almost all of his vote will be from hardcore Berners. McGinty will disproportionately get support from Clinton voters.

It really speaks to McGinty's weakness as a candidate that the establishment is pouring in money and endorsements to bolster her, and she's still significantly behind.  It is especially shocking that the state's party came off the fence to endorse her.  Do they really hate Sestak that much?

They do. Beating specter was considered treason.

How disappointing. Guess it's Sestak then.

Agh, I really wish I could vote in this primary. Sestak is just barely gonna eek this out, huh? I'm quite nervous in spite of a 10 point lead. That could evaporate in 2 weeks with McGinty's tiny momentum.
