(Take poll)
As for context, first a disclaimer. The RCP average still puts Hillary 30%+ above Sanders as of now. Still, it's notable that Sanders beats Walker by 6-7 pts, depending if all voters or just likely voters are counted. In a general election, that sounds quite the landslide margin - and it could be construed as a sign that the Sanders surge is more than just a surge against Trump, but it actually makes Bernie competitive to most GOP candidates. Or that might only be wishful thinking - so feel free to lambast this supposition - or read the rest of my musings...
