A hand picked list for sure - doesn't bode well for Hillary unless seniors (over 65 I presume) make up over 50% of the electorate.

Interesting, esp. if she loses women and under $50K ...

I think we already assumed seniors were pro-Clinton.

I am angry at you now, slog (and The Page). Releasing exit polls before the polls close is just wrong. It can skew voter turnout and results. It's less important in primaries than the full election, but I still don't like it.

Oh, come on, it's not like there's an election here.

Oh, wait, is it Primary Day?
