 Clinton lost ground among key supporters
By: Carl CampanileNY Post - Hillary Rodham Clinton's bread-and-butter supporters - working-class voters and women - did not come to her in the numbers she needed in Indiana, exit polls showed. Clinton managed only a narrow victory because she captured just small majorities among those two core groups, who had been responsible for giving her strong primary victories in Ohio and Pennsylvania over the last two months, according to exit surveys conducted for The Associated Press and a media consortium.

By: Carl CampanileNY Post - Hillary Rodham Clinton's bread-and-butter supporters - working-class voters and women - did not come to her in the numbers she needed in Indiana, exit polls showed. Clinton managed only a narrow victory because she captured just small majorities among those two core groups, who had been responsible for giving her strong primary victories in Ohio and Pennsylvania over the last two months, according to exit surveys conducted for The Associated Press and a media consortium. She won among voters making less than $50,000 a year - but by slim numbers, 52 percent compared to 48 percent of Barack Obama. She won that group by double that margin, eight points, in Pennsylvania. And yesterday she won her key demographic - women, but again by small numbers, 53-47 percent. That's a major tightening from Pennsylvania just two weeks ago, when she captured women by 59-41 percent over Obama. In Pennsylvania, she trounced her rival among voters with no college degree, 62-38 percent. But in Indiana she won that group by only 56-44 percent. And among union households, Clinton scored only an eight-point win over Obama, compared to her 18 percent margin in the Keystone State. Clinton won about 6 in 10 white voters, who made up 80 percent of the total. By contrast, she won 63 percent of the white vote in Pennsylvania, compared to 37 percent for Obama there. But Obama won more than nine in 10 black voters in both Indiana and North Carolina - a margin that helped him strongly in the Tar Heel State, where African-American voters accounted for one-third of the Democratic primary electorate. Blacks accounted for about one-sixth of the vote in Indiana. There were some troubling signs for Obama.
