Sanders up 63-31 among Hispanics, 32 points, according to this poll.  How is this remotely believable given that exit polls have shown Latinos at:

Nevada: 53-45 for Sanders
Illinois: 49-50 for Sanders
Florida: 68-32 for Clinton
Texas: 71-29 for Clinton

What, is Sanders winning literally every Hispanic person in California?  Because thats the only way you can get the math to work out for this poll.

Clinton also only leads 61-35 (26 points) with African Americans, which is lower than her result with the group in every state so far.  How does this result make any sense given that she won blacks 69-31 in Wisconsin (and by basically the same margin throughout the rest of the midwest) and 89-11 in Mississippi (and by a similar margin throughout the South).

It's possible, but, if true, it wouldn't matter much, that people have changed their minds in places that have already voted.  For instance, it wouldn't seem like a stretch to say that Bernie would beat Hillary by 10 points in Iowa today.

Sanders has won the Latino votes in Colorado, areas like MN, Kansas, etc or even Washington, Hawaii & most of the states he has won.

Anyways National polls at this point are meaningless. In competitive races, Sanders wins or ties the latino votes, meaning they are fairly divided!
