See link for breakdown. Trump dominates everything. Men, women, young, old, graduates, non-graduates, moderates, conservatives, very conservatives. There is not a single category he did not dominate. Trump's huge leads among very conservative and conservative are also very interesting:
For just Conservative: Trump 36% vs Cruz 15%. For Somewhat Conservative: Trump 36% vs. Cruz 9% For Very Conservative: Trump 35% to Cruz 23%

Newsmax analyzed the data and here is some key takeaways:
Only 55 percent of Republican primary voters identified themselves as “Republican,” 42 percent declaring they were “independents,” and 3 percent saying they were “Democrats.”
Donald Trump pulled a disproportionate number of voters – 45 percent – who said their highest education was high school or less.
Trump underperformed with voters holding a postgraduate degree – pulling just 20 percent of that vote, compared to John Kasich, who pulled 21 percent of that group.
Trump did much better among voters who never graduated college, grabbing 38 percent of this group, to 27 percent of college graduates who voted for him.
45% were not Republicans
open primaries are as dumb as open borders
Can’t we all just agree to support Cruz? ;o)
News Max was pimping Rubio and Jeb Bush not too long ago, so I’m not sure if I’ll take their “analysis” over the exit poll results.
I self-identify as “very good looking”. Where’s my pollster!?
Wow!!
Cruz got 23% of the very conservative vote, 9% of somewhat conservative and 4%!!!! of moderates.
Trump pulls from every demographic. Cruz is a fractional hard-right candidate that will do well in caucuses based on his organization but we saw what happens in broad based primaries. Cruz has a real problem with moderate and somewhat conservative voters.
Trump won the very good looking and the ugly votes as well.
Is Redstate is still breathing? Any report of welfare check?
“45% were not Republicans
open primaries are as dumb as open borders”
So you are a !Jeb! supporter?
Not this “very conservative” voter...
Cannot wait to hand him his hat on Super Tuesday...
Same here. I was told from an early age that my looks would get me far in radio.
You will be assimilated eventually. We will give you Donald Trump hair and will use you to clean the toilets in our new glorious empire.
There are no “very conservative voters,” in New Hampshire. In New Hampshire, being a very conservative voter means you are a mild socialist.
Nope, not ever happening.
Cruz’s biggest problem is he does not resonate with majority of Republicans. Take away the Evangelists, and he has nothing much else.
Since not a single one of his 99 colleagues, including senator Sessions and Mike Lee, have endorsed him, that tells me he does not know how to be likable. Even Robot boy Rubio has more senate endorsements.
One demographic that Trump isn’t winning, is the alleged conservative media class.
That’s been one of the biggest surprises to me. It’s just amazing how many of them totally misjudged the depth of Trump’s popular appeal, and now find themselves cross-grain to the majority of rank and file conservatives.
Just went through all the data. Impressive stuff. Age, gender, income, education levels, Trump dominates almost all by yuge margins. He is also the preferred candidate for handling all the major issues that matter to voters.
