(CNN) – Who you backed in Indiana seems to have been based, to some extent, on your birthday – a fact that’s working in Hillary Clinton’s favor.

Voters in most age groups were almost evenly split – except for the youngest and oldest voters.

Sixty-three percent of voters under age 24 backed Barack Obama. But twice as many seniors went to the polls – and 72 percent of them voted for Clinton.

In North Carolina, Obama won young voters 70 to 28 percent, and lost the senior vote to Clinton – but her advantage, though still significant, came by a slightly smaller margin: 57 to 39 percent. Limiting his losses among older voters was a big factor in his win.

Truth always prevails in the long run. Thank you NC majority for recognizing the dire need for changing of the gaurd that is keeping the country stuck by poli-TRICK-ing,hate mongering & divisiveness.May we all participate with vigor to restore this country & take it to a greatness never before seen . Together we stand,Divided will fall…furthur. USA Forever !!!! TOGETHER WE CAN !!!! Obama 08 !! !!

John from DC   May 6th, 2008 9:36 pm ET

I have inside info; that if OBAMA win the election, he will make Jeremiah Wright as his VICE PRESIDENT. So keep voting for him. I love Wright and want him at the top with Obama. I know all you young voters out there want Wright as our VICE PRESIDENT also…Go Obama & Wright 2009!!!!!

sp   May 6th, 2008 9:36 pm ET

Also, what everyone seems to be forgetting he is carrying the smaller states not the key states that are needed to win a presidential campaign: California, Ohio, Penn., Texas, Florida need I go on.

Chanel   May 6th, 2008 9:36 pm ET

While I believe that the polls based on ethnicity, age, and sex give way to division, it is important in this election for democrats. They need to know what areas to hit if we are to change the electoral count come November. I do agree with this this part of your statement Sunny, vote on the issues no matter who get the Dem nomination… unless you want more of the same.

Soldier of fortuneah   May 6th, 2008 9:35 pm ET

I honestly believe that a large percetage of older Hillary voters are personnel who would never vote for Obama due to obvious reasons. It's amazing how they tried to hide behind the Rev Wright issue or the bitter comments and use that as an excuse not to vote for Obama. Remember that theses older voters are some of the same personnel who are from some of America's darkest years where racism was truly rampant.

Obama/Pelosi '08

Wellstonian Democrat   May 6th, 2008 9:33 pm ET

Look, I know plenty of older men and women who vote for Obama. How else do you explain him winning by 20 or 30 points in places like MN, WY, etc? This whole looking for any divide thing is not productive. There will always be divides just because of the way things are but they don't necessarily prove a lasting situation or that one thing is causing another. BTW "older" people mean people over 60 in this case. So unless 50 years old are "naive young people" then this is not happening because of naive young people, nor is it socialist. The end point is this is a movement, and young people sense that, but so do middle aged people, so do many older people. you'll note the advantage of Clinton with older voters is smaller than he disadvantage with young people. When all is said is and done they can slice and dice the country and people how they want, but in the end we are one people whether we acknowledge it our not. I just hope we realize it now rather than later, (hint, hint Clinton supporters).

God Bless the USA   May 6th, 2008 9:33 pm ET

the glaring thing to me tonight is that less than 50% of HRC supporters say they will not vote for BHO if he is the candidate in November. Compare that to the 70%+ Obama supporters that would still vote for Hilary if she were the candidate in November. Too quickly we seem to forget that we are all one party, and we need to focus on a common opponent. I really hope the numbers are skewed due to the amount of crossovers and "independent" republicans that are voting for HRC…because if not, we're in for at least 4 more years with McSame. I beg all of you to educate yourselves, after you do that I'm fine with whichever candidate you feel comfortable voting for. Don't treat this like some glorified sporting event like the media is trying to portray it.

Billy   May 6th, 2008 9:33 pm ET

Of course he won NC did he win Indiana??? Nope!

Richard, FL   May 6th, 2008 9:32 pm ET

"I'm going to do everything I possibly can to make sure that one of us takes the oath of office next January. I think that has to be the overriding goal, whatever we have to do."
— Hillary Clinton, debate, 4/16/08

“Of course once we have a nominee we’re going to close ranks and have a unified party because the differences between us as Democrats pale in comparison to the differences we have with Sen. McCain and the Republicans”
– Hillary Clinton, 5/05/08

It is now time for those of HILLARY'S SUPPORTERS who want another 4 years of Bush to explain why she is such a liar about this and has no interest in doing what is best for our country.

E. C., Houston, Texas   May 6th, 2008 9:32 pm ET

What a pitiful documentary on the level of maturity of voters and the lack of experience and understanding of polititcs. That inexperienced and uneducated young voters can make such a pronouncement in vote results is detrimental to the future of this Nation. Wisdom and experience count greatly and determine how this country will prosper in the future. Obama is not experienced, nor is he qualified to be the leader of a nation, not now, not ever.

Chanel   May 6th, 2008 9:32 pm ET

The older democrats are familiar and comfortable with the Clintons. To them, Obama is a risk that most of them do not feel comfortable taking. The young voters however, want to see a dramatic change with the way this country is ran, and as the saying goes… … "Out with the old, and in with the new."

sp   May 6th, 2008 9:32 pm ET

This is an amazing race but truth be told he won't win against McCain in November. This is exactly how the Republican party wanted America to set it up. Media hounding Hilary but leaving Barack alone.

Good luck to America in 2009 forward. We are in the toilet now and once McCain gets in it will only get worse.

Hilary for President!!

karen Open your eyes.   May 6th, 2008 9:31 pm ET

If Barack Obama feels he has gotten unfair hits from the Clintons I can't help but wonder if he will be able to weather the republicans in November.
The Clintons have received more then their share of hits while Bill was President and yet the hits keep on comming and Hillary is still standing and even has her head held high. You go girl! !!!
You may not like Hillary but She is the best choice for president.
Open Your Eyes and remember our goal is to win back the White House. Focus People.

Michigan for Obama   May 6th, 2008 9:31 pm ET

I am continually perplexed that this age bracket votes Clinton…this is the age group that lived through the first Clinton White House with all the scandles and drama…and impeachment…short term memory.

Signed: by someone within that age bracket …and caucasion…but for Obama!

William   May 6th, 2008 9:31 pm ET

Is this really time to take risks? I think bush has taken enough of those and put the lives of thousands of americans in harms way….i do not plan on taking risks on someone that does not have the experience….Hillary has proven to be a canidate that has the experience…and has been able to walk the talk…how about barrack starting walking all this talk….

Earl   May 6th, 2008 9:31 pm ET

For all of you Operation Chaos supporters, you ought to be ashamed of yourselves. You have once again proven that you are mindless robots. You actually allowed a man (Rush Limbaugh) to dupe you into pure evilness. You all are nothing but followers. Rush is un-American and you are too. You have spat in the face of all those that died for American freedoms, died for equal rights, died for the RIGHT to vote and died for America. You want to call Rev. Wright, a man who served his country un-American??????? How dare you? You are un-American and it is disgusting how you shamed your country. Get over yourselves!

Sarah   May 6th, 2008 9:31 pm ET

Thore,
Thanks for pointing out what the media and Obama supporters choose to ignore.
I am not voting for him because I don't trust him. Bottom line!

NBC   May 6th, 2008 9:31 pm ET

Unfortunately, to many older voters choice is based on color. Color has no scientific value. Sadly enough, it has a social value which was created long ago and is force feed to non whites. Many can't break from the error they were taught. Being white is all they know. Regadless how wrong that value is. We, as a country need to leave that past. It is a cancer. America is scared. I hope these that profess find true religion. "How can you love God who you can't see when you can't love your neighbor who you can see?" J.C.

Audrey   May 6th, 2008 9:30 pm ET

Congrats to Obama, but he will never win in the general election. I am sorry but if you do not think this primary is about race but you better take a good look. This primary is all about race. A few of my friends have stated the only reason they are voting for Obama because he is African American, I think that is silly, you should be voting for what that person represents. To be honest I don't think anyone can say they were suffering during the Clinton years, people were working, no deficit, people weren't losing their homes like they are now. I am no longer a democrat, I switched to independent, because both parties don't really care about the people.

John   May 6th, 2008 9:30 pm ET

allright… if a picture is worth a thousand words, this one's worth a gazillion. T

The woman holding the sign (bless her heart) has already had her day, and her and others like her blew it for their generation.

Let us get united behind a uniter.

He is the winner of NC

Senator Obama, change is coming to America.

A new vision is blossoming.

That is his time and he has a rendez vous with White House. He is Senator Obama 08

Sunny   May 6th, 2008 9:28 pm ET

the polls does not always say what people really are doing. i think many people are basing it on race to choose their candidates. 92% african american for obama. obama divides the country. the only people he unites is his own supporters which are those crazy fanatics

Jess   May 6th, 2008 9:28 pm ET

Thanks to the ignorance of Americans (3rd time in a row) and Dean, John McCain will likely be the next president.

Obama is 500K votes ahead. FL and MI people's vote thus far have not been heard. That's 3 million votes ignored. BUT, if somehow civil justice is done and these people get to vote, Hillary will win and the most racist people in America (who just proved it with 91% voting based on race) will scream injustice and riot like idiots.

Hillary, don't fret. Obama will lose in Nov.. and in 4 years you can come back with plenty of examples of why it was a blunder of historic proportions.

Amy in Iowa   May 6th, 2008 9:27 pm ET

Since younger voters will have to foot the bills of the older generation, then younger voters should definitely be the majority ones deciding on the next generation of President for this country.

James   May 6th, 2008 9:27 pm ET

Forget this nonsense… I am watching Obama's speech in NC… This race is over. He just basically accepted the party's nomination and is declaring war against McCain…

And man.. This is awesome… McCain has no chance of fending him off. I can feel the energy over the net!

Luke   May 6th, 2008 9:26 pm ET

I am 20 years old and I support Clinton.
Never Obama

Time to call Indiana for Clinton

it's too bad old people are allowed to vote considering a lot of them will be dead before the next election. thanks for leaving the rest of us with hillary :(

Lim   May 6th, 2008 9:23 pm ET

I think the electoral calculus that put Senator Obama over the top in
he Democratic primaries will be proven insufficient for him to win
in the general election against Senator McCain.

GO OBAMA!!!!!

vic nashville,Tn   May 6th, 2008 9:23 pm ET

For Hillary supporters
Starting to night Fox will take care of every thing
Now Republican know they can win in November
Cowered Dean gave the nomination to Obama he don’t like Clinton
We have three party in USA the third party is Clinton party
With out Clinton party DNC can’t win November
We will prove again in November
Hillary 08 or Mc Cain 08

it is our turn   May 6th, 2008 9:23 pm ET

It is our generations turn. It's time to take back our country. It's time to clean house in Washignton. It is OUR future. We will take the reins, make the change needed to ensure our children live in a country WITHOUT the baggage of previous generations mistakes. Out with Bush, out with McCain, out with Hillary. IT IS OUR TURN! IT IS OUR FUTURE!

1988-2008, the BUSH/CLINTON REIGN IS OVER!!!!!

William   May 6th, 2008 9:23 pm ET

While i cannot speak for all democrats, i do know that most americans feel that having 4 more years of the same is not the direction that we want our country to move in. I cannot however in good conscience vote for a canidate that i do not support, I have been and will continue to be a clinton supporter…..If obama should clench the nominee well i am afraid i would have to sit this one out!

Sunny in New Mexico   May 6th, 2008 9:23 pm ET

Obama is electable and I am tired of hearing about the white vote, black vote, female, Catholic vote, flag labels, this poll, that poll, the poll of all polls. People vote on issues that matter to you and your families. Unless of course you want another 4 - 8 years of the same.

Sally   May 6th, 2008 9:22 pm ET

I love it - good for Obama. He is also looking good in Indiana. Hope he win big in Indiana. - Obama - 08

Herman in LA   May 6th, 2008 9:22 pm ET

Barack will win those over as well give him time.

Because when you think about Roe.V.Wade being over turned by John McCain they will come on board as well and that's a fact.

Obama 08!!!!

Debra   May 6th, 2008 9:22 pm ET

To the 5 year olds that were allowed to vote and will not vote for Obama in the primary, it is time for you to go into time out. Obama has lead overall from the almost the beginning. He has overall been beating the biggest Democratic Machine, the Clinton's. Children pout when they don't get thier way unless their parents correct this behavior. It is time fo Hillary to step down and ask her children to behave.

Alfredo   May 6th, 2008 9:22 pm ET

I just voted for Hillary In NC, and I will not vote for Obama in November… From now until then I will contemplate voting Republican…

SuzyQ   May 6th, 2008 9:22 pm ET

Shame on you CNN! Years ago when I was just beginning my career in broadcast journalism, I was taught to report the news NOT create it. At least Lou Dobbs reports the news like it is.

Chris in Va.   May 6th, 2008 9:22 pm ET

All of the talking heads said the only way Hillary can pull off the Dem primary was to win by a 20 point margin in all remaining states. I guess next week it'll be 30points, the next 40……….

I'd say it's time for Hillary to make up more lies to sway the sick and the old.

Sheanne   May 6th, 2008 9:21 pm ET

Well, it looks like this Democrat will be voting for McCain and I won't be alone….

more than 50% of Clinton supporters polled on if they would vote for Obama and the answer is NO.

Joe Reg   May 6th, 2008 9:21 pm ET

Now that Obama has won NC and in a dead heat in Indiana. Can we wrap up this thing now.

It seems like it is a hopeless fight, really.

Obamacan 08.

Jeff from IN   May 6th, 2008 9:20 pm ET

Does anyone else find it strange that it is now over 2 hours since the polls have closed in Indiana and we still have not seen any returns for some of the state's largest counties (Lake, Tippecanoe, Hendricks, Laporte)? The numbers in Indiana will be very, very close by the end of the night. I'm guessing that seniors will not decide the state.

Gayle, CA   May 6th, 2008 9:20 pm ET

Obama has a shot at winning Indiana also! :-)

addison rine   May 6th, 2008 9:20 pm ET

well im only 13 but i am looking mainly at hillary but obama is inspirational and has been put under the gun for the wrong reasons. I bielieve that she is the best because she has a plan. but im not voting for her because she is white most of my friends are black some are for obama a few for hillary. im a student of a middle school in columbia South Carolina.

The Old Generation still Afraid of the Other side which is " Black and anything other than white individuals" Plus the old politics while some of them think they are voting for Bill.. Anyone notice how Clinton supporters always type in Caps like they are yelling with a lot of spelling mistakes?

Obama's Constituency   May 6th, 2008 9:17 pm ET

I am the parent of two very successful young college educated sons who are both married to very successful educated women. Neither of them support Obama nor do their wives. So your analysis as fo who is voting for him is not always right. By the way, my kids voted for Hillary because their smart and that's the kicker!!

hill fan   May 6th, 2008 9:17 pm ET

I will not be voting for Obama..he will NOT have my vote. 6% of the black vote for Clinton…unbelievalbe. And 71% of the young for obama. You all didn't even care to vote when Bush was being elected…can't stand American right now… Clinton would be the best thing for the "normal, hard working Americans" that keep this country going….

Irish Gram   May 6th, 2008 9:17 pm ET

Older people are considered wiser. That is why they voted for a proven leader.They didn't go for the showman stunts of Obama.

reality check   May 6th, 2008 9:16 pm ET

Henry Ford said this best on a different station. He can't win with out clinton and she can't win without him. They need to make up and run together if we want to win in November.

Jacob Gallman   May 6th, 2008 9:16 pm ET

How is it, with 26% of the precincts reporting, you feel that you can call the NC election for Obama? That's just over 1/4 of the precincts. Isn't that what got the media in trouble in the last two elections?

Thore   May 6th, 2008 9:16 pm ET

It is ironic that no one talked about Karl Rove's Operation Chaos (KROC) to get out the vote for Obama. Obama would not be ahead without all the little red states he chalked up because of KROC.

No more lies   May 6th, 2008 9:16 pm ET

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS YESSSSSSSSS OBAMA IS WINING IM SO HAPPY OH MY GOD I JUST SAW THE SCORES IM SO TEARFUL AND EMOTIONAL PLEASE DEMOCRATIC PARTY LETS GET UNITED HILLARY CLINTON SUPPORTERS PLEASE LETS GET UNITED AND WE SHOULD DELIVER OBAMA TO THE WHITE HOUSE :)

OBAMA FOR THE WIN IN '08!!

fran   May 6th, 2008 9:15 pm ET

Cannot win in November without every democratic voting for the party's nomination. So name calling isn't going to get us anywhere. Young or old, we all want the same thing, so respect those who have been where you have been and respect those who are where you use to be. It's a 50/50 race and we cannot go into November divided.

sophia nyc   May 6th, 2008 9:14 pm ET

CLINTON"S NEW MATH: Now Hillary is going to try to do to Obama what Bush did to Gore in 2000.

EH, Seattle   May 6th, 2008 9:13 pm ET

I am 56 years old and I could never vote for Hillary. Perhaps I'm old enough to recognize pandering and "politics as usual." I also think I'm smart enough to realize that if Hillary wins the White House we will also have Bill in the background playing President and Womanizer.

Seriously, Obama brings energy, vigor and the ability to bring people together to straighten our country out. These are very serious times and we need a LEADER not someone who tells the populace what they want to hear.

magie   May 6th, 2008 9:13 pm ET

Hi:

I think that what you did not mention was AA votes. It was 33% of the votes that were ~ entirely to Obama.
It is more than age - when 20% of the population makeup for over 30% of the vote and it almost entirely goes to a candidate!

Krystyna from Chicago for HILLARY !!!   May 6th, 2008 9:12 pm ET

Americans wake up !!!!
Obama is not electable in the primery !!!!
Most of Hillary's voters will not vote for Obama !!! (Rezko link ), WE LOST the TRUST !!!!
Democratics will loose in the general election !!!!
VOTE FOR HILLARY !!!!!

Western Voter   May 6th, 2008 9:12 pm ET

I am so sick and tired of the Clinton spin. Paul Begala and James Carville and the rest. Isn't this the politics of the past? I get it now my GOP friends. The Clintons ARE the problem!

Not to mention the Bushes…so with Hillary we get Bush-Clinton-Clinton-Bush-Bush-Clinton from 1988 to now??? Isn't America better than that?

Pleeeez! How about taking one four year term to put America FIRST?

Thore   May 6th, 2008 9:11 pm ET

To expand, the states you allow to vote in the primaries and the states you win in the primaries will translate into a general election electoral votes necessary to win the Office of the Presidency.

carrie   May 6th, 2008 9:11 pm ET

if hillary clintons supporters love her so much,why are they not donating
why is she still broke
why arent they doing more to help her campaign
why is she still losing
maybe its because she wants to oliterate a country,dodge sniper fire or maybe its because of her lesbian affair with her campaign staffer,

Ken   May 6th, 2008 9:11 pm ET

The older generation in this country has ruined our reputation, our economy, and our environment.

Young people are sick and tired of the old same President. We want change. We want inspiration. We want Obama.

A. Q. Men   May 6th, 2008 9:11 pm ET

I'm a high schooler, but it's clear to me that young people need to separate image from policy. While it's true that Obama is baller, we need a moderate who's a good policymaker and politician. Obama can wait for 2012 or 2016.

By the way, to all you political analysts out there, don't count on the youth Obama vote for November. A bunch of my (female) friends who back him just have a crush on him… and we all know how long high school crushes last.

Jim Richmond   May 6th, 2008 9:10 pm ET

Sad day for America. McCain will be our next president. The history will tell about this election as how blacks and young socialists messed up America. Only if Whites asked more questions about Obama, we wouldn't be in this predicament. I hope McCain doesn't follow George Bush's steps. Our economy would be far better with McCain than a socialist at the top.

MD   May 6th, 2008 9:10 pm ET

The main issue is to elect a Democrat in November. Refusing to vote, or worse, voting for McCane in November is like cutting your nose to spite your face.

If that happens, McCane wins, and then people better not complain about a thing, because they only have themselves to blame.

bhargavi pandalai   May 6th, 2008 9:10 pm ET

Come on guys. stop dividing the Democratic Party !!!! This is 2008. By the census bureau, we will be a lot less divided by race and gender in this country… in the next ten years. There will NOT be a majority race…..so why talk so much of the disenfranchised white male voter !!!! They are probably cringing at you making them the scapegoat of all problems… I am. Move on to issues and understanding how we need to get back to the world view!

WE SUPPORTED BILL, WE DID OUR DUTY FOR THE CLINTON'S!!

It's OBAMA's time now!!!

Sarah   May 6th, 2008 9:09 pm ET

The biggest factor in Obama's win is that he is getting over 90% of the black vote. 33% of voters were African American 3% of them voted for Hillary. 33-3=30%. If it were not for them voting so strongly on race he wouldn't have won.

FreshAir   May 6th, 2008 9:08 pm ET

WHY TO WE HAVE TO BE SUBJECTED TO CAMPBELL BROWN???

EH, Seattle   May 6th, 2008 9:07 pm ET

The sad perspective of Mr. Schneider's analysis of the Clinton Voters who won't vote for Obama is that it is a subtle way of saying race is the issue in this election. Essentially, if an Indiana voter doesn't get Clinton to vote for it will be a cold day in Hades if they were to vote for a black person (man or woman) — even if the black person were much more competent. I'm not very proud of this message to the world.

CNN why are you not posting my comments???   May 6th, 2008 9:07 pm ET

not surprised was expected …..

Rocky   May 6th, 2008 9:07 pm ET

Hillary. Face the music. You have lost. Yes, you can go on until June, or you could go on until August — you have every right.

But you will only be hurting the democratic party and the chance to end 8 horrible, destructive years in our country.

It's time for the Democrats to unite behind a nominee and zero in on McCain (Bush 3rd Term).

It's already going to take a lot for Obama to beat McCain in November because of close-minded bias. You can help now by gracefully exiting the primary race.

Obama 08:white, female and 60   May 6th, 2008 9:07 pm ET

Hey, I'm an old white woman on the OBAMA train! There are more of us than you think.

WISDOM   May 6th, 2008 9:07 pm ET

I think the "Operation Chaos" worked. GOP voters voted DEM's primary in Ohio (100,000), Texas (125000) and about 10% of the vote in Indiana. So without the GOP votes, Billary could be long gone by now.

Now, look at the counties that Billary wins…a small town people who are very close minded and racially biased…and more than likely less educated.

I'm a hoosier who lives in a college town, but if I drive 10 minute out of town, I can find so many people who would be categorized as "rednecks".
I'll bet that it will be about same result for KY which is south of IN. A typical rural area people who think they are morally conservative, but in reality, they are completely out of touch from very diversified modern society. Otherwise, I can't understand how they can still believe in that Obama is Muslim who swore in with Koran instead of Bible. I talked to a lot of people at work and about three out of ten are still believe that Obama is Muslim. It's so sad to see people like this way, but that's the reality whether we like it or not. I think we still got a long way ahead to truly appreciate the beauty of "Rainbow", the God's creation!

Until then the peace be with you all with God's blessing.

Even with republicans crossing over to vote for Clinton, Obama is catching up really fast. Go Obama.

Clinton should start worrying about money and superdelegates. Think about it. Obama would have won Indiana if not for the Republicans and media bias towards Clinton the last few days.

Clinton just lost her only chance. I can't believe people are still voting for her.

Older Voters for Clinton, Younger Voters for Obama
Because: Clinton represents Old Politic, Obama Represents New Vision… and we Americans are tired of old politic.

My Message: Bye Bye Clinton…Ur Campaign will never see the light of day again… hahahahhahahha .. I am soo happy
