Exit Polls: Majority of Dems in IL, MO rated "honest and trustworthy" as most important trait

In North Carolina and Ohio the most important trait was "cares about people."

In Florida, the top candidate quality was someone who has the "right experience."

Democrats in all 5 states rated the economy and jobs as the most important issue.

Also:

A majority of Democrats in each state except Ohio said they want to see the next president continue President Obama's policies, rather than pursuing policies that are more or less liberal. (In Ohio, 48 percent said they want someone to continue Obama's policies, while 34 percent wanted more liberal policies and 12 percent wanted less liberal policies.)

I think the "right experience" in Florida probably favors Hillary. "Cares about people" could go either way.

People with more information will Choose Bernie for "cares more about people" easily over Hillary
People less attentive will probably take Hillary on that one

Hilary's people don't give a rats ass about trustworthy. or honest.

And from what I've seen here

they don't care about Jobs - they support NAFTA AND TPP

they don't' care about health or environment - They support fracking and have been more worried about the price of oil than the health and environmental damage it does - they support Monsanto and GMO's are nothing to worry about and why do you need to know if they are in your food.

Yea I'll probably get alerted on this for stating what's been written at DU on these issues but we've all seen it. and it's still out there.
