'Very Conservative' Voters Went for Cruz: Fox Exit Polls

The good news for Texas Sen. Ted Cruz in Indiana was that he captured voters who describe themselves as "very conservative," according to Fox News exit polling.

The bad news: Indiana voters weren't overwhelmingly conservative.

Here's how GOP voters described themselves:

• Very conservative: 32 percent
• Somewhat conservative: 44 percent
• Moderate: 22 percent

Indiana has open primaries, meaning voters do not have to be registered Republicans or Democrats to vote in the primaries, so many of them likely were independents — a likely help to front-runner Donald Trump, who has been declared the winner by major news organizations.
