The Economist has released new YouGov Poll that indicates that Sanders favorable rating among African Americans at 56% and among Latinos at 46%.

It lists his “Somewhat unfavorable” among AAs as 15% and his “Very unfavorables” likewise at 15%. An additional 14% are listed as “Don’t know”.

Among Latinos his “Somewhat unfavorables” are 15% and his “Very unfavorables” at 17% with an additional 22% listed as “Don’t know”.

This would seem to buttress the observations made by Alex Shephard in The New Republic.

Reports of a decline in enthusiasm among Sanders’s supporters also appear to have been greatly exaggerated. His fundraising and poll numbers disprove the idea that he’s an also-ran. But there are other signs of his continued vitality. Despite his near-universal name recognition, and the media’s overwhelming attention lately to O’Rourke, Biden, and Buttigieg, Sanders has consistently been among the top three Democratic candidates in Google searches, suggesting continued interest in his campaign. Finally, he appears to be broadly liked throughout the party. A Morning Consult poll in February found that he was the second choice for voters who supported the campaigns of Biden, Warren, and O’Rourke, suggesting that support could coalesce around his candidacy as other Democrats drop out.

Food for thought.

Since some have chosen to raise it in the comments, I think it worth noting that Sen. Sanders announced on the Daily Show tonight that he’ll be releasing 10 years of his tax returns.
