Well, let's not get too wrapped up in the powerful blue/white shading imagery there. Sanders won this whole state BIG with lots of inherent advantages...so the fact that he won most of the age/economic subgroups isn't itself a shock.
Another way to look at that breakdown is to realize that in the "middle" income group from $100-200K, Clinton OUTPERFORMED her statewide numbers (even while losing). Less interestingly, she did so with the second-oldest group as well.
He is unsurprisingly killing her with the young, and there are other factors we know are driving the race... but that $100-200K band is a pretty important demographic. And that's before you introduce the new (to New Hampshire) concept of "people of color."
