2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Clinton won majorities among voters in the rust belt who said the economy was their PRIMARY issue [View all]Buckeye_Democrat
(15,336 posts)I looked at the Ohio exit poll and noticed that Trump won big among people who were most concerned about immigration and terrorism, just like in the national ones. He also won big among evangelicals, like in the rest of the country.
One that stood out for me among Ohio voters was the level of concern about Clinton's private email server! 50% of the respondents said it bothered them "a lot."
50%?! You've got to be kidding me!
Among those people, Trump won 90% to 5%! Clinton won big among everyone who answered "some" (65 to 32), "not much" (90 to 5) or "not at all" (90 to 6).
Were they bothered by private emails in the past and the massive purges that happened then, such us during the Dumbya years? Or do about 50% of Ohioans listen to RW radio and watch FOX News now? Of course, even the so-called "liberal media" harped on it too!
