Hillary won 70% very liberal, 81% among the poorest, 86% black voters, 80% Democrats

Overall 74% and won every county. African-Americans who turned out were higher than in 2008.

She even made big inroads among Bernie's 17-29 year old's--losing but by a relatively narrow 54-46 percent. Every other age group she won overwhelmingly.

these stats have to be filtered through the reality of voter turnout. No county had more than 30% and most were 10 and 20 percent.

These stats might mean victory for Clinton now in SC. But they spell defeat in the General.

The youth vote continues to be hers to bungle, and the independents are not going to hold their noses after the Brockian attacks and smears.

Penny smart and a pound foolish.
