It may not be too strong to describe Hillary Clinton’s support as collapsing at a national level. A new poll released this morning shows that her lead over Bernie Sanders nationally has declined from 31 points to 2 points. Bradford Richardson of The Hill reports:

Democratic presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders has dramatically cut into the nationwide lead of primary rival Hillary Clinton, according to a new Quinnipiac University poll.

The poll released Friday finds Clinton leading the race with 44 percent support, compared to 42 percent support for Sanders, within the survey's margin of error.

The last iteration of the poll in December had Clinton leading Sanders nationwide by a 61-30 point margin.

Don’t worry: the Party will not let Bernie run. It will make the backlash from young Bernie supporters all the worse.
