NY Times: Sanders Wins Nearly Every Demographic Group

[Jarqui]

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

1. Amazing.

[redwitch]

2. I am so happy tonight!

Go Bernie!

[EdwardBernays]

3. If only

There were enough Americans earning over 200,000 to elect a national candidate.

[PonyUp]

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

[EdwardBernays]

14. Good plan!

Someone call Goldman Sachs!

[Kall]

18. I'm holding out for $225,000 per hour

[Gorgatron]

19. Hahahaha that's great

[PatrickforO]

4. What gets me is that Clinton won voters 65 and older. She's never, at least

to me, seemed rock solid on keeping SS strong.

[daleanime]

11. No, but they have enough memories....

of the cold war to make Red Scaring more effective.

[peacebird]

5. "She did carry voters in families earning over $200,00 per year"

But lost nearly every other demographic!

[shawn703]

13. Haha yeah

This is a demographic I'm sure came as no surprise

[thesquanderer]

16. What a terrible headline for her to come out of this with

considering she's being hit as being the candidate of the rich and the establishment, it won't help her to have lost every income demo except the over $200k.

[amborin]

6. everyone values integrity & honesty

[JRLeft]

7. She must have lost by 20 plus.

[JackRiddler]

8. Never had the youth...

managed (with help from her friends) to alienate women....

whom will she chase away next?

[dsc]

9. she won it with less than 50% in 2008

and may have done better there than in 2008, she took 40 in 2008.

[JimDandy]

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

[Truprogressive85]

10. Lol

She did win 200k households lol

[jeff47]

15. I like how they called out the results for 65+, but didn't for 18-29.

Sanders only "bested" her....85% to 14%.

[Ferd Berfel]

17. Now THIS is significant!

[Live and Learn]

20. Onward to Nevada and South Carolina, we go.

I hope everyone will pitch in wherever they can, phone banking, canvassing, donating etc. We CAN DO this.

[Duckfan]

21. Having to rely on just older voters ain't going to cut it for her.

Younger voters who are excited and voting for first time are going to overrule Hill's (supposed) locked up demographic.

[Kip Humphrey]

22. Hey DUers: Join the revolution... its no too late.

72% of "undeclared" voted for Bernie and revolution.

Feel the bern.


peace.

[PFunk1]

23. I'm surprised he made big inroads into the african-american community

If this holds true (and is duplicated in the Latino community) then this could be a game changer. And as a AA Bernie supporter Im very glad for it.

But I also fear this my get Hillary to engage in "Scorched Earth" tactics (i.e. slime/throw the "kitchen sink" to bring down Bernie favorables, make him 'toxic to other groups and attack his 'base') to force Bernie out/win the primary. And I both don't think that'll work and I don't think the party could take that.

Lets hope she finds another path. Please.

[Jarqui]

25. I think the Clintons have shown enough of their cards that the kitchen

sink is coming. It's just a matter of when.

[burrowowl]

24. I'm 69

and GO BERNIE GO!

[pkdu]

27. She also has the most total delegates from NH ...you forgot that tidbit. nt

[bravenak]

30. What does THIS MEAN?

I did not watch, please. I gave my kids the tv for cartoons. How can she have more?

[Robbins]

36. No she didn't

super delegates don't matter right now since they can change before convention.Bernie won more pledge delegates from NH.

of course you clinton supporters like MSM want to use super delegates,

[pkdu]

38. I think you forget who actually picked the SuperDelegates

There will be no "change before the convention" unless Hillary releases them

[bravenak]

28. What was the black vote? Please?!?!

[Jarqui]

31. Thought I saw somewhere 52-48 for Sanders

CNN exit polls did not have that data

[bravenak]

32. Those are all minorities and it was the reverse

I hope we get full numbers like last time. Or maybe we didnt. Idk.

[Jarqui]

34. Be a great town hall question to Hillary

"Why is it that the rich like you most and those making less than $200,000 don't?"

[madville]

35. I thought it was interesting that Bernie

Won around 80% of first-time primary voters. That's a huge enthusiasm gap between him and Clinton.

[Jefferson23]

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

[bklyncowgirl]

39. Thank you, great post.
