Victory for Hillary in NV. Coalition of Women, African Americans, Hispanics, Older voters, STRONG!
The coalition Hillary won Nevada with:
1. African-Americans.
Hillarys Nevada result with the African-American voters was 76% to 22%. Turnout from African-Americans was 13%, not that much of a drop from 2008 when this groups turnout was 15%.
2. Obama folks.
People who want to continue Obamas policies, strengthen them and making them better, not go into a different direction.
That segment was 49% of the Nevada electorate. Hillary won this segment 74% to 22%.
3. Women.
Women turned out in large numbers for Hillary. Women made up 56% of the Nevada electorate. Hillary won the women vote 57% to 41%, a huge gap. While Bernie won the male vote, the gap was a lot smaller, almost half the gap that Hillary was able to get with women.
4. Hispanics.
Early projections among Hispanics have turned out to be wrong. It appears that Hillary has won the Hispanic vote by double digits, based on strong numbers out of Clark County. Hillary appears to have won Hispanics in Nevada by double-digits.
5. Older voters.
Young voters were mostly with Bernie, but they didnt turn out. Only 18% of the Nevada electorate were voters between 18 and 29 years of age. Another 17% was the age group between 30 and 44 years of age. However, 35% of Nevada voters were from 45 to 64 years of age, and 31% of Nevada voters were 65 and over. That 31% of 65 and over voters is strongly better than what Nevada saw in 2008.
Hillary got 74% from voters age 65 and higher, and 61% from voters age 45 through 64.
Bernie won young voters, but they didnt turn out in the ways the older voters did.
6. Democrats
Its our party. Actual DEMOCRATS strongly support Hillary. Among registered Democrats Hillary won 57% to 41%. Actual Democratic party voters took the race away from Bernie today.
