Seems to have been a very low democratic turnout. Trump won with fewer votes than Romney got against Obama.
We've been conducting an extremely unscientific straw poll in Parliament over the last month or so, as one of our jobs is to talk to visitors. Most American visitors thought both candidates were awful, and roughly equal portions of them said they would vote with little enthusiasm for one or the other, but it was a case of voting for the least worst option.
A few people admitted to be enthusiastic Trump supporters, and these people tended to be very vocal.
I honestly met no actual registered American voters who said they liked Clinton.
As I said, very unscientific, but that was the way the wind seemed to be blowing.
