Alabama

Broad support among blacks, mainline Democrats, seniors and those seeking a return to former President Barack Obama's policies lifted Biden in Alabama's Democratic primary. Black voters made up 46% of the electorate – trailing only South Carolina in turnout among blacks in states with exit polls this year. They overwhelmingly picked Biden, to the tune of 72% – surpassing his 61% share Saturday.

Biden did similarly well among mainline Democrats, with 67% of their votes. He also won 76% of seniors (a third of Democratic primary voters in Alabama) and three-quarters of the majority who wanted to see a return to the policies of the Obama administration.

Health care, as in many other states, was a top issue in Alabama, at 49%, with income inequality, race relations and climate change each behind by 30 points or more. Biden led among voters focused on health care by a wide margin over Sanders, 59-14%. Biden even topped Sanders by nearly 2-1 among those who support a single government health plan, a signature Sanders issue.

Liberals were 53% of voters in Alabama; a strong group for Sanders in some other contests, but here they opted for Biden, 54-24%. That was consistent with Sanders' poor performance in 2016 among liberals in the state.
