Blacks make up 7.9% of the Nevada Population (10.4% in Las Vegas). The CNN Entrance poll have Blacks providing 15% of the vote.
So blacks were over-represented in the Democratic Caucus and Obama got 83% of that vote. Barack can not win on just a black vote. He lost Whites by 8%. and he lost Latino's by 38 points. Clearly he is losing on a racial divide but it is not White Vs Black... it is Brown Vs. Black.
He is also losing the gender vote. Hillary also swept him in many other categories. Her win appears to me to be rather complete. If these ratios hold in South Carolina, he will lose there also despite the heavy percentage of blacks. Winning on gender is going to trump winning a single racial divide.
