2016 Postmortem
Showing Original Post only (View all)NY Times: Sanders Wins Nearly Every Demographic Group [View all]
http://www.nytimes.com/live/new-hampshire-primary-2016-election/bernie-sanders-wins-every-demographic-group/Senator Bernie Sanders beat Hillary Clinton among nearly every demographic group in the Democratic New Hampshire primary, according to exit polls.
He carried majorities of both men and women. He won among those with and without college degrees. He won among gun owners and non-gun owners. He beat Mrs. Clinton among previous primary voters and those participating for the first time. And he ran ahead among both moderates and liberals.
Even so, there were a few silver linings for Mrs. Clinton. While Mr. Sanders bested her among all age groups younger than 45, the two candidates polled evenly among voters aged 45 to 64. And Mrs. Clinton won the support of voters 65 and older. And, though Mrs. Clinton lost nearly every income group, she did carry voters in families earning over $200,000 per year.
Not a lot to cling to for Clinton in this state - a state she won in 2008

If she can get me $200,000 per year before coming to my state, I may consider voting for her. n/t

Well, there were 5 candidates in that primary, so that's not an equivalent, or fair comparison. n/t

Older and wealthier. She's still the "realistic" candidate to support? hmmmm
