Democrats are split among race, age, and gender, according to Nevada entrance polls.
WASHINGTON (CNN) – Nevada entrance polls indicate deep divisions among race, gender, and age in the Democratic presidential race. Among black voters, Barack Obama bested Hillary Clinton 79 percent to 16 percent. (Black voters constituted 16 percent of Nevada caucus goers.) Among women voters, Clinton bested Obama 58 percent to 35 percent - a cornerstone of Clinton's win in the state, since women made up roughly 60 percent of Nevada caucus goers. Finally, the younger the caucus-goer, the more likely he or she supported Obama. The Illinois senator overwhelmingly beat Clinton among 18-29 year-olds (57 percent to 30 percent) and edged out Clinton among 30-44 year olds (42 percent to 30 percent). But the New York senator edged out Obama among 45-49 year olds (46 percent to 39 percent) and easily beat him among those caucus-goers 60 and older (61 percent to 28 percent.) Those two statistics were particularly good news for Clinton, since roughly two-thirds of Saturday’s caucus-goers were over 45. – CNN Ticker Producer Alexander Mooney Filed under: Barack Obama Hillary Clinton Nevada
