HUFFPOLLSTER: How Sanders Stunned Pollsters In Michigan
Polls faced one of the biggest misses in the modern polling era in Michigan on Tuesday. Marco Rubio also had a really bad night. And national polls show Donald Trump might have a ceiling among GOP voters, but benefits from the divided electorate. This is HuffPollster for Wednesday, March 9, 2016.
POLLS SERIOUSLY MISFIRED IN MICHIGAN - HuffPollster: "After a run of relative successes, polls missed in a big way Tuesday in Michigan's Democratic primary.

HuffPost Pollster, which includes all publicly available polling, gave Clinton an 18-point lead. Instead, Sanders pulled off a narrow victory, marking what could be a historic polling misfire. What happened? It's too early to know for sure, but there are a number of things that could have gone wrong.”
