Clinton Narrowly Wins Among 50K+ Voters

According to the recalibrated exit polls after wave three, more than six in ten voters reporting earning more than $50,000 a year. Clinton narrowly won this demographic in Ohio. Clinton seems to have won them -- narrowly -- in Pennsylvania.

Atlantic Media political director Ron Brownstein e-mails to suggest that the exits may be overstating the number of educated, affluent voters .

"It could be no one knew what a Pennsylvania primary looked like cause we haven't had one in a while, but it may be that the 47% college-educated and 26% who make 100k plus in the exit polls gets dialed down and exits get readjusted later to tilt more toward HRC."

He also points out that turnout in suburban Philadelphia could be higher than normal, too.
