In reply to the discussion: Poll: Hillary Clinton still tops in 2016 [View all]earthside
(6,960 posts)45. Don't put words in my mouth.
Low information, nominal Democratic voters are those millions and millions who do not pay attention to a tenth of the things DUers pay attention to; they are too busy making a living to worry about Hillary's emails or the latest stupid remarks from Ted Cruz.
If polled, these good folks will likely say they support Hillary because they haven't heard of anyone else -- she has good name ID.
When I talk to these kinds of registered Democrats in Colorado, when I press the subject, they want something new and exciting -- they are not enthusiastic in the slightest in a retread from the 1990s.
