Hillary Rodham Clinton among Wisconsin's mostly white voters, a sign that his campaign has eaten into Clinton's support among groups that have supported her in earlier states. And Obama tied Clinton among women, even white women, Clinton's core group. Obama increased his edge among young white voters and expanded it into middle-age voters, winning among white voters under 60 years old. Obama even tied Clinton among white voters without a college degree, a group Clinton usually wins.<br>";

McCain actually did better among self-described Republicans than he did among independents, an unusual event in recent Republican primaries, although in Wisconsin's open primary many moderate independents may have chosen to vote in the more heavily contested Democratic race. But the trend seen in recent primary states still continues when it comes to ideology. McCain and Huckabee tied among conservatives, while McCain won overwhelmingly among moderates. While McCain won those who called themselves \"somewhat conservative\" he lost to Huckabee among the quarter of Republican voters who said they were \"very conservative.\"<br>";

By well over 2-to-1, independents opted to vote in the Democratic primary over the Republican. For about one in seven Democratic voters, Tuesday was the first time they were voting in a primary.";
