According to Peter Brown, assistant director of the Quinnipiac poll, it is difficult to see any path to victory for Sanders in Florida which has 214 delegates up for grabs.

According to the survey most voters have already decided on whom they plan to support in both Florida and Ohio, and this contributes to Sanders problems in these states. Mathematically trying to catch up to Clinton will be difficult. He will have to win three-fifths of the remaining delegates to break even with Clinton.

Clinton Leads Trump with help from the Obama Coalition
The latest Washington Post, ABC News Poll shows that Hillary Clinton holds a clear lead over Republican front runner Donald Trump in a hypothetical matchup this November. Her lead is powered by the same coalition that twice elected Barack Obama
Clinton leads Trump 50 percent to 41 percent among registered voters and has made steady progress against her potential rival over the past six months.
The survey shows that the former secretary of state is viewed more favorably than Trump on a series of issues and on a series of candidate attributes.
Clinton is assembling a potentially winning coalition of minorities, women, young voters and voters with college degrees. Trump is chosen by barely one-fifth of nonwhite voters
Clinton has a 21-point lead over Trump among women, while Trump has a five-point edge among men. Along educational lines, white voters are sharply divided. Trump carries voters without college degrees by 57 percent to 33 percent; Clinton wins those with college degrees by 52 to 37.
The survey also highlighted a significant generational difference in candidate preferences. Trump and Clinton are virtually tied among voters age 40 and older. But those under age 40 favor Clinton by a nearly 2-to-1 margin.
Clinton enjoys significantly stronger support among Democrats than Trump does among Republicans.
The other good news for Clinton in a possible general-election matchup with Trump is the improvement in perceptions of Obama. His overall approval rating stands at 51 percent in the new poll. Slightly more poll respondents said things have gotten better during Obama’s presidency than say they have gotten worse — 48 percent to 43 percent.
When Americans are asked who they think would win if Clinton and Trump were the nominees, Clinton is the overwhelming choice, with 59 percent naming her compared with 36 percent choosing Trump.
The Post-ABC poll was conducted March 3 to 6 among a random national sample of 1,000 adults reached on conventional and cellular phones.
The new NBC/WSJ poll shows Hillary Clinton clobbering Donald Trump 51 percent to 38 percent in a general election, a margin of 13 points. In his press conference on Tuesday night Donald Trump was claiming that polls were showing him easily beating Hillary, but maybe Donald should follow the polls more closely, since he relies on polling to bolster his campaign.
