Trump Wins Every Demographic, Including Beating Cruz by 12% for "very conservative" voters
CNN Exit Polls ^ | 02/09/2016 | CNN

Posted on 02/09/2016 10:01:30 PM PST by Greetings_Puny_Humans

See link for breakdown. Trump dominates everything. Men, women, young, old, graduates, non-graduates, moderates, conservatives, very conservatives. There is not a single category he did not dominate. Trump's huge leads among very conservative and conservative are also very interesting:

For just Conservative: Trump 36% vs Cruz 15%. For Somewhat Conservative: Trump 36% vs. Cruz 9% For Very Conservative: Trump 35% to Cruz 23%

Nope, not ever happening.

Didn’t think there were very man “very conservatives” in New Hampshire.

Trump won, so we don’t have listen to him bitch and moan for the next couple weeks. Onto to SC and hopefully a Cruz victory.

Yes, we know how conservative folks tend to be after four years of non-stop leftist indoctrination in college.

Are you working on your excuse theory why Cruz lost SC?

Doesn't bode well for Cruz in the general election if he wins the nomination.

Trump on the contrary could pull in a lot of otherwise Dem or stay-at-home blue-collar voters.

Trump could carry Michigan, Ohio and even New York.

He doesn’t smile much, either. I knew there was something that wasn’t quite clicking with me, and that turned out to be it.

Since not a single one of his 99 colleagues, including senator Sessions and Mike Lee, have endorsed him, that tells me he does not know how to be likable. Even Robot boy Rubio has more senate endorsements. Rubio has the establishment senators.. Why even Bob Dole likes Trump over Cruz. Lott likes him too!!!

Mike Lee and Cruz are very good friends and He said he will endorse him if one of his other friends drops out!!!

It gives Cruz clear data from the field that he is wasting his time and other people’s money.

By dropping out now, he can help himself by focusing on his current job from which he is truant.

True, but Cruz’s numbers are even less impressive.

“Trump underperformed with voters holding a postgraduate degree, pulling just 20 percent of that vote, compared to John Kasich, who pulled 21 percent of that group.

Isn’t 20% and 21% nearly the same percentage? So how is Trump “under performing” Kasich in that category?

You mad? Don't be mad bro. Conservatives in NH chose Trump. Just deal with it.

Nick Nolte at Brietbart wrote an important piece on how Trump won the New Hampshire vote among college educated voters.

This is significant, because both the left and right claimed Trump supporters were uneducated.

One demographic that Trump isn't winning, is the alleged conservative media class.

The “conservative media class” are very image conscious and most felt that supporting Cruz gave them the bragging rights of supporting the candidate that claimed the mantel of most conservative early on. Now that it is becoming obvious that the likely winner of this contest is the other guy... a bunch of them will be pivoting to Trump and pretending like he was always secretly their candidate. That is called momentum. Even the editor of the National Review looked like he was eating crow tonight. They tried to stop the Donald in his tracks and just found out that their influence is currently negligible and dropping fast.
