      I wouldn't build a predictive model out of it. But it is a sign of a lack of enthusiasm - for both candidates really.

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

      I don't think it's controversial that the universe of passionate Hillary supporters is limited.

      Maybe. We actually know very little about Hillary supporters - receive less attention than Trump or Sanders supporters

      Studying the supporters of the status quo isn't very compelling.

      Clinton supporters include overwhelming majority of People of color & those who make less than $50,000.

      they're fundamentally status quo people, regardless of their demo

      People of color & those who make <$50,000 are status quo people in USA?

      Let me suggest that it's Trump fans (white men who make $70-$100,000) who are invested in racial/social status quo.

          I don't see Trumpism as a populist movement. It's fuelled by aggrieved privilege.

          The racial/social status quo is a good one.

          I like @robertpjones name for Trump voters; "nostalgia voters". They're for status quo of 1950's America.
