How Donald Trump dominated Nevada, in one word: Anger

  • 8 years ago
Donald Trump won New Hampshire, a moderate Northeastern state that prides itself on its sober analysis of the candidates at hand.
Donald Trump won South Carolina, a conservative Southern state with a number of religious voters.
Donald Trump has now won Nevada, a Western state with its own eclectic mix of Republican voting groups.
According to preliminary entrance poll data reported by CNN, he won every age group and every education group and both genders -- and even every racial and ethnic group.
About 1 in 10 Nevada Republicans were Hispanic.
More than 4 in 10 of them backed Donald Trump .
Nevada Republicans are mad at the government.
And voters didn't want a politician to address that anger.
Six in 10 Nevada Republicans said that they were looking for the next president to be someone from "outside politics."
That's 6 in 10 of a "huge" turnout, by the way.
And 70 percent of them voted for Donald Trump.
