538 says that Bernie Sanders has no chance for two main reasons.
If Sanders could make inroads in the Black and Latino communities, and keep building the grassroots support, then there's a chance he could make this a "the people vs. the establishment" race. But as long as he's primarily only appealing to liberal White voters, he really has no shot at all in the primary, and so it's pointless to talk about what he'd do in a head-to-head against the Republicans.
Sanders may be polling well in mostly white New Hampshire, but he hasn’t been able to figure out how to earn more than 5 percent of the nonwhite vote, according to nationalpolls. Nonwhite voters make up more than a third of Democratic primary voters nationally.
Sanders has very little establishment backing: Of the 111 governors, senators and members of the House to have endorsed a Democratic candidate, 100 percent have endorsed Clinton. Only Gore in 2000 came close to winning this large a percentage of the endorsements at this point in the campaign. Clinton’s support comes from north, south, east, west, black, Latino and white.
