By The Associated Press
Some highlights of data from exit polls conducted for The Associated Press and television networks in the Missouri presidential primary Tuesday.
———
VIEWS OF THE ECONOMY
Missouri voters aren’t enthusiastic about the economy, but Republicans feel better about it than Democrats. Nine in 10 Democrats rated the nation’s economy as “not so good” or “poor,” while about two-thirds of Republicans offered the same assessment.
Nearly half the voters in both primaries said the economy was the most important issue.
———
CANDIDATE QUALITIES
Among the Democratic candidates, Sen. Barack Obama did best among voters who said “can bring about needed change” was the most important candidate quality. Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton did best among voters who cited “has the right experience.” Among the Republicans, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee’s best showing was “shares my values.” Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney and Sen. John McCain both did best with those citing “has the right experience.”
———
INDEPENDENT TURNOUT
Slightly more than one-in-five voters in both the Republican and Democratic primaries called themselves independents.
———
PHILOSOPHY
Missouri Democrats tend to be more moderate than liberal, while Republicans lean strongly to the right. Half of Democrats call themselves moderates, while about two-fifths call themselves liberals. Among Republicans, two-thirds call themselves conservative and about a quarter call themselves moderate.
