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.

There are no “very conservative voters,” in New Hampshire. In New Hampshire, being a very conservative voter means you are a mild socialist.

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.

Didn’t think there were very man “very conservatives” in New Hampshire.

Trump won, so we don’t have listen to him bitch and moan for the next couple weeks. Onto to SC and hopefully a Cruz victory.

Nick Nolte at Brietbart wrote an important piece on how Trump won the New Hampshire vote among college educated voters.

This is significant, because both the left and right claimed Trump supporters were uneducated.

But Ted "Cam Newton" Cruz today was showboatin' all about "Yeah, who whipped who? Who is whipped? Who gave a whippin'"

Cruz's mouth writes checks that his a$$ can't cash.

Guess he's counting on Goldman Sachs to cash them for him. Like the "Sweetheart Loans."

Ironic: Trump signs the FRONT of checks. Cruz only knows how to sign the backs.

He beats in every demographic because he is accurate,truthful, and a true populist who understands subsidiarity and freedom. Sanders also a populist who will solve same problems with government intrusion and control.

Two words. New Hampshire. We will see what happens when we get back out of the liberal North East.
