On Tuesday and Wednesday, CNN's New Day aired pre-recorded segments in which co-anchor Chris Cuomo spoke with six New Hampshire voters about the presidential race.

Although the group was supposedly balanced by including two Republicans, two Democrats, and two independents, four of the six participants -- including one of the Republicans -- seemed more aligned with Democrats in their interests and thinking.

One of the Republicans actually seemed to talk up socialist and Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders's plan for the government to offer free college education while the other Republican voiced support for same-sex marriage.

After one participant complained about candidates offering "templates" instead of specifics, Republican Claira Monier brought up Sanders's proposal for free education. When host Cuomo warned that such a proposal would be unpopular, she persisted in talking up the self-identified socialist's plan.

CLAIRA MONIER, REPUBLICAN: Well, I think Bernie Sanders has come up with some very different positions than a normal template.



CUOMO: What's his big idea? MONIER: Okay, his idea of education being free. Education- CUOMO: Free college, he says. MONIER: Yes, yes. He said that. CUOMO: And they go like this (Cuomo closes his eyes, holds his nose, and shakes his head quickly) when they hear that. MONIER: Well, that's all right. But at least- CUOMO: Nobody likes that idea. MONIER: -discuss it. I know, but you need to discuss it.

The two interviewees who were identified on screen as Democrats were consistently liberal in their views, citing issues like national service to pay for education, and the fear of racial profiling as important to them.

Another participant, Nyomi Guzman -- whose party preference was not identified on screen, but who was presumably one of the two independents -- also sounded liberal as she complained about electing "old, white men again and again and again," and cited "equal pay" as being important to her. Guzman:

We need diversity of candidates, then, if we want new perspectives. We can't keep reelecting, like, old white men again and again and again. And I'm okay to do it if it's the right old, white man. But I also think that with diversity of people comes diversity of opinion.

The other independent seemed more aligned with Republicans as he voiced concerns about terrorism and was critical of Hillary Clinton's handling of her email during her time at the State Department.

Below are transcripts of relevant portions of the segments from CNN's New Day from Tuesday and Wednesday:

#From Tuesday, June 16, at 6:50 a.m.:

CHRIS CUOMO: What really matters is: What do you want? What are the needs of people? What can the candidates do to win your vote? So we're going to start a series of conversations with real people in key battleground states. We started in New Hampshire and the famous Chez Vachon cafe. It's been the place through the years to see, and all the candidates go there and interrupt people's breakfasts, like I did. No, these people wanted to do this. We sat down with two Republicans, two Democrats, two independents to find out what really counts. Here's what they say.



When I was reading through everybody's bio here about what matters to you, I was like, where is this stuff about how the left wants to destroy America, and, you know, that's why I'm going to stick with the right? And where's the stuff on the other side about how the right wants to make sure that the LGBT community has to stay in a stone cave for the next -- you know, it seemed like you guys aren't saying the same things that I'm hearing said to me. (...) CUOMO: So when they're talking about how they'll feel about the Supreme Court decision on same-sex marriage, you're listening.



NYOMI GUZAMAN, NEW HAMPSHIRE VOTER: Yes. CUOMO: That matters. Do other people or are other people listening to that? ELLE CARUSO, NEW HAMPSHIRE VOTER: I've met very few people in my generation that still oppose it. And so I really think it's a very important issue, but I also do think that, as time goes on, it's something that will naturally just kind of fall into place. Gays should be able to get married. That shouldn't even still be a question. NYOMI GUZMAN, NEW HAMPSHIRE VOTER: We need diversity of candidates, then, if we want new perspectives. We can't keep reelecting, like, old white men again and again and again. And I'm okay to do it if it's the right old, white man. But I also think that with diversity of people comes diversity of opinion. (...) CLAIRA MONIER, NEW HAMPSHIRE VOTER: I want you to know I have done my bit and I have stopped contributing to various PACs asking for money. I have stopped giving money to those particular groups.
