Democrats are unified behind Hillary Clinton in Pennsylvania, as a new poll shows that her lead has grown to 13 points in the state and 81% of respondents say they will vote for her in November.
According to the Monmouth University Poll:
Clinton has the support of 52% of likely Democratic primary voters in the Keystone State while Sanders’s support stands at 39%. Clinton holds a significant lead among women (61% to 32%), while Sanders leads among men (50% to 41%). Clinton also has a significant advantage among voters age 50 and older (57% to 33%) while Sanders holds a narrow edge among voters under 50 (48% to 46%).

The Monmouth poll finds that a small number of Democrats may defect from the party if their favored candidate does not get the nomination. If the general election is between Clinton and Donald Trump, 81% of Pennsylvania Democratic primary voters say they would commit to supporting Clinton while 11% say they would vote for Trump. If Sanders is the nominee, 78% of Pennsylvania Democratic primary voters would back Sanders while 11% would vote for Trump.
The key takeaway is that this is the second poll in less than 24 hours to show that the Democratic Party is united. In Pennsylvania, Hillary Clinton will have more support from Democrats than Bernie Sanders would if he was the nominee, but most importantly, Donald Trump only has a shot at winning 11% of the Democratic vote in Pennsylvania.
The NBC News exit poll of the Democratic primary in New York revealed that 85% of Democrats said that they would likely or probably vote for Clinton in November. Democrats are more unified now than they were at the same point during the 2008 primary. While Republicans have a choice between a historically unpopular Donald Trump and contested convention that would expose every divide within their party, Democrats are ready to roll with Clinton.
Democrats aren’t going to be divided and appear focused on the dual goals of keeping the White House and winning back control of Congress.
