Bernie Sanders was only able to win the support of one major demographic on Super Tuesday, according to exit polls presented by MSNBC's Steve Kornacki. While Hillary Clinton dominated among black voters (83 percent to 15 percent) and Hispanics (67 percent to 33 percent), Sanders' sole group win was with white men, 54 percent to Clinton's 44 percent.

Clinton has a lot of thanks to give especially to black voters, NBC News reports. NBC writes that, "If only white Democrats had voted on Tuesday in [the Southern] states, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders would not have been that far behind Clinton in terms of accumulating delegates."
