“NBC News Exit Poll: Young Democrats prioritize a candidate who agrees with them on issues over beating Trump

Younger and older Democratic primary voters do not see eye to eye when it comes to the type of candidate they want their party to nominate.

According to the NBC News Exit Poll in Super Tuesday states, a majority of Democratic voters under age 30 say that, if they had to choose, they would rather see the party nominate a candidate who agrees with them on major issues than a candidate who can beat President Donald Trump.

Older Democratic primary voters disagree. Roughly 6 in 10 primary voters ages 30 to 59 and 73 percent of voters ages 60 and over would rather have a candidate who can beat Trump than one who agrees with them on major issues.”
