Bernie Sanders
Related: About this forumBernie 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.

(34,111 posts)I predicted to my husband that I thought he might take it by 16%, I see he is now up to 18%.
I am beyond thrilled. Momentum will be a good thing, people who have not paid attention will begin to and will want to know him.
I am happy to see these numbers. Good news.
