Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) has wide leads over the Democratic presidential field in Michigan and Wisconsin, but is facing a tighter race in Pennsylvania, according to a poll released Sunday.

Sanders holds a 16-point lead over his closest competitors in Wisconsin, based on the University of Wisconsin-Madison survey.

Sanders has 30 percent support in the battleground state, pollsters found. The rest of the top-top Democratic candidates are lumped together within 1 percentage point of each other. Former Vice President Joe Biden and Former New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg both register 13 percent support in Wisconsin, while Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and former South Bend, Ind., Mayor Pete Buttigieg trail closely behind with 12 percent support apiece.


Sen, Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.) has 9 percent support in Wisconsin.

The poll also found Biden, Buttigieg, Klobuchar, Sanders and Warren all beat President Trump in general election match-ups in the battleground state. The poll did not include a Bloomberg contest against Trump.

excerpt;
The survey polled 1,300 people in Michigan, 1,300 in Pennsylvania and 1,000 in Wisconsin. The margin of error for the full sample in each state ranges between 3 to 4 percentage points.

At least the Dems are honest about who they are now...

Snarknado:
This is primary season. The fact that those are battleground states in the general is completely irrelevant in the primaries.

With the Super Tuesday primaries holding 1/3 of the delegates, and the frontrunner hovering around 29%, a brokered convention seems inevitable.  Maybe if Bernie offers something to Warren in exchange for an early exit, he could build a significant delegate lead going into the convention.  Otherwise this is headed for a wild finish.

Can you recall any Rat Primary race where the Rat's not the incumbent that doesn't look like a Cluster this early on?  I've heard the words "brokered Convention" several times before, concerning both Parties.
