Women, voters 50-plus dominate latest primaries

Health care continued to be the most important issue on voters’ minds during this Democratic primary season as contests were held in six more states on Tuesday. Former Vice President Joe

Biden won Idaho, Michigan, Missouri and Mississippi, and Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders took North Dakota. Washington state's primary remained too close to call on Wednesday. Voters over

age 50 dominated the electorate in Michigan, Missouri, Mississippi and Washington, according to exit poll data reported by CNN. Exit polls were not conducted in Idaho and North Dakota. The

available data also showed a higher turnout among women than men. The next milestone in the 2020 presidential campaign comes Sunday, when Biden and Sanders are scheduled to debate on CNN, at

8 p.m. ET. The campaigns and the network jointly decided that, due to the coronavirus, there will be no live audience for the debate, which will take place two days before primaries in

Arizona, Florida, Illinois and Ohio. Here's a snapshot of the electorate in the four Tuesday contests for which CNN and NBC News reported exit poll data. MICHIGAN TURNOUT: 54 percent
