40%

The one open road to the White House for Trump. In a typical presidential election fewer than 60% of eligible voters make it to the polls. Those 40% who stay home represent the people who think that all politicians are bums and it doesn’t matter who wins because they are all controlled by big business and big labor. They feel their vote is just a waste of time. If these people see Trump as someone who is different and will make a difference they might be motivated to go to the polls. When experts talk about turn out they are referring to people who normally vote and not about those who never vote. Are these silent 40% riled up enough to go out and vote? We will see.
