Here are some responses I found surprising from exit polls related to voting Democrat (I will provide three, and you can think about some of your own):
It is surprising to me that more people who said the economy was the most important issue to them voted Democrat. Traditionally, people who care more about the economy tend to vote for Republicans.
It is also surprising that people who said foreign policy was the most important issue voted Democrat. Generally, people who are concerned about domestic issues vote for Democrats (while those who are more concerned about foreign policy vote Republican), but in this election, people may have thought Hillary had more foreign policy experience.
It is interesting that people who felt trade with other countries benefits the United States tended to vote Democrat. Traditionally, people who vote Democrat are against free trade with other countries (particularly members of unions).
Here are some responses I found surprising from exit polls related to voting Republicans (I will provide three, and you can think about some of your own):
It is interesting that white college graduates voted more for the Republican candidate, as people with more education tend to vote Democrat.
It is also surprising that people who made over $250,000 tended to vote Republican (by a very slight margin of 46% to 48%), as the top income earners have tended to vote Democrat in recent elections.
It is surprising that people who said their family financial situation was worse today tended to vote Republican by a large margin, as people in the past generally looked to Democrats if they were suffering financially.

List and explain 5 criteria/responses you found surprising that correlated with Trump or voting Republican and explain why. (For example, stereotypically Republicans . . . blah, blah and it shows that blah, blah, blah or I always thought.)
