Roughly a quarter of likely California voters have come out in support of Bernie Sanders, but as the primary creeps closer, many are still undecided.
Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders is pulling ahead of the pack in California, according to a new poll which shows roughly 24% of likely voters support him in the delegate-rich state.
Polls are showing a Sanders surge across the U.S. after the senator from Vermont claimed a victory in the New Hampshire primary and had the popular vote in Iowa. The Monmouth poll showed more good news for Sanders: As the field shrinks, findings show his support would increase in a two-person race. “California is the big prize on Super Tuesday," Patrick Murray, director of the independent Monmouth University Polling Institute said in a statement, referring to the state's 494 delegates.
In two-person matchups against moderate candidates, Sanders continued to come out ahead. The poll showed voters preferred him to Biden 44% to 36%, Bloomberg 48% to 31% and Buttigieg 51% to 26%. His core support stems from young people under 50 and Hispanic voters, the majority of whom chose him in every hypothetical contest pollsters offered.
The results are based on surveys of roughly 570 Californians who participated in past elections or who recently registered to vote, which were conducted by Monmouth University Polling Institute last week.
