You can't compare New Hampshire to a state like South Carolina. StevieM Feb 2016 #25

Now we having voting data though ram2008 Feb 2016 #27

Bernie did very well with all groups in NH, better than he would have done with the same groups StevieM Feb 2016 #38

Bernie also did better with Women, NOT just young Women either but NorthCarolina Feb 2016 #55

That's my point. NH was a great state for him across the board. StevieM Feb 2016 #63

Not really. It's about the votes of a tiny fraction of a tiny fraction of the electorate. n/t pnwmom Feb 2016 #62

What you think polls are? eom noiretextatique Feb 2016 #114

Reliable polls are carefully designed to include a random selection of voters. pnwmom Feb 2016 #116
