A breakdown of some Republican primaries.
The has an interesting compilation of graphics showing “How different groups voted on Super Tuesday primary, according to exit polls.”
No surprises here:
About two-thirds of men in Virginia and three-quarters in North Carolina supported Trump over Haley, according to preliminary exit polling, while Trump’s support was lower among women in both states. In California, similar majorities of men and women supported Trump.
Aside from some unexplained state-by-state variation, Trump did better with men than with women but still won both overwhelmingly.
I’m not really sure what to make of this:
About 9 in 10 voters in the Republican primaries in Virginia and North Carolina on Tuesday were White, along with a smaller majority of California primary voters, according to preliminary exit polling data. There wasn’t much of a gap in support for Trump between White and non-White Republican primary voters in Virginia or California. In North Carolina, Trump had support from over 7 in 10 White voters and over half of non-White voters.
That Trump is somewhat more appealing to Whites than non-Whites overall is hardly a shock. But I don’t knon what it means in terms of the relatively small numbers who would show up for an essentially uncontested Republican primary eight months before the general election. Or why the results would be so starkly different in the bordering purple states of Virginia and North Carolina.
This is at least somewhat surprising:
Majorities of every age group in Virginia and North Carolina supported Trump over Haley, according to early GOP primary exit polling.
