After five primaries on April 26, the Democratic candidates have just one state on deck within the next week. The Indiana primary takes place on May 3 and has 83 delegates at stake.

The early Indiana polling data has Hillary Clinton with a narrow lead on Bernie Sanders. According to RealClear Politics, Clinton has an average lead of 4 percentage points in the early polls.

Sanders faces an uphill climb to comeback in the race. The delegate math favors Clinton by a wide margin. The Democratic delegates are divided proportionally based on primary results which makes it difficult for Sanders to make up a lot of ground at once.
