Another (broad, imprecise, debatable, non-predictive) indicator: relative to 2008, few are openly displaying HRC fandom by way of signage.

I live in Clinton Hill, Ft Greene & Bed-Stuy bounding me. Almost *no* HRC signage at all. There were plenty of Bernie signs though

I didn't draw any conclusions. I can make observations without therefore being tethered to some predictive conclusion

It was uncontroversial to state that the proliferation of Obama signage in 2008 was an indicator of enthusiasm.
