The world view of the Trump/Clinton Voter

Donald Trump's victory in this week's U.S. elections came as a surprise to many.

Our graphic, for which we have used data from the CNN exit polls as of Nov 9 (3.06 am ET) points out the attitudes of voters on topics where Trump and Clinton strongly disagree. Although we look at subsets of respondents from the exit polls only, the chart illustrates a lot of sensitivities that are widespread among many people in the U.S.
