Poll: Hillary Up By Five In Texas
A new poll from InsiderAdvantage gives Hillary Clinton a five-point lead in the Texas primary. The numbers, compared to the last poll from Thursday:
Clinton 49% (+2)
Obama 44% (+1)
The result is weighted according to the pollster's predictions of the racial, gender and age demographics for the primary — and pollster Matt Towery thinks this is an optimistic projection for Obama.
"Our weighting is designed to discount Hispanic turnout in areas where historically their turnout has been lighter, and to maximize potential African-American turnout," Towery writes. "Even with this model, which we believe to be accurate, though obviously not a perfect situation for Clinton, she leads."
