Bernie Sanders outpolls Donald Trump for 2016

This is the latest poll of how Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders would do if they were the Republican and Democratic candidates.

RealClearPolitics reported that the average of the last four public opinion polls shows Sanders ahead 45.3 to 41.3 percent.   Sanders came out ahead in six out of eight public opinion polls matching him against Trump.

My expectation was that I would vote for Bernie Sanders in the New York Democratic primary, and then vote for Jill Stein of the Green Party in the general election rather than Hillary Clinton or Jeb Bush.

I never expected to vote for a Democratic presidential candidate again and, to be honest, I still don’t.  But who knows?
