(24,689 posts)3. Would have thought CA might be a good state for Bernie.

(32,342 posts)4. We have Orange County and Central CA to deal with.

(146,346 posts)5. Publication date of the poll was May 22, 2015.
Polling took place between April 23 and May 16. So, it's fairly recent data. Poll sample was 801 registered California voters.
