Nearly half of the voters in the West Virginia Democratic primary who backed Bernie Sanders say they would vote for Republican Donald Trump in the fall presidential election, according to exit polls reported by CBS News.
Forty-four percent of Sanders supporters surveyed said they would rather back the presumptive GOP nominee in November, with only 23 percent saying they'd support Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton. And 31 percent said would support neither candidate in the likely general election match-up.
According to ABC News, about 80 percent of West Virginia Republican voters say they're excited or optimistic about what Trump would do if he were elected president, and 9 in 10 think Trump is likely to beat Clinton in a general election.

We know Hilley made a promise to kill coal to promote less carbon emissions, but one wonders what other reasons W.Va. is so against her? She got beat by Sen Sanders and it looks like W.Va. could be a big win for Trump in the general. I wonder if Hilley knows there is a movement among the Sanders supporters that is saying #NeverHillary, if she does not get it now maybe she will after the general election.
The exit polls are showing little support for Hilley, if Trump wins the general election and becomes president of the US of A, we can all thank crooked Hillary!

A Quinnipiac University poll found Sanders performs better than Clinton against presumptive GOP candidate Donald Trump in crucial swing states.
The new poll shows Clinton in a dead heat with Trump in Pennsylvania, leading him by just one point, 43 percent to 42 percent. Sanders, meanwhile, leads the billionaire 47 percent to 41 percent.
The result is even more surprising when you consider the former secretary of state beat Sanders by 12 points in the Pennsylvania primary two weeks ago.

Nice to see some of the . . . liberal . . . uhhhh . . . perspective
are rational enough to realize that the gritchy one would be extremely DESTRUCTIVE to the Republic; our way of life; our families; our welfare; our incomes; our peace; etc. etc. etc.
Given Trump is so far behind with minorities and women, he doesn't need to make much of an inroad with those groups to win.

I saw this on the news. WV is a very red state, but even so this must be worrying for Hillary.
The overall polls nationally are also getting closer and are tied in the key swing states.

A talking head, I think Karl Rove, said Trump has overwhelming support with white males, which negates any lead Hillary has with minorities and women.

It's a rather astute, and true assessment. And certainly an unexpected turn of events.
In a way, if he picks a female and/or ethnic VP choice, it would be seen as pandering and may cost him more votes than he'd gain.

Actually most do. A majority of this country are more towards the middle, fiscally conservative and socially liberal.
