Your periodic PSA that Clinton won voters making under $50k over Trump by 11 points, which is an improvement over Obama's margin against Romney (10 points) with that same group in exit polls.


Better than Obama? That's really interesting. Maybe there were fewer people making under 50k in 2016 than in 2012 given 4 years of economic improvement and inflation in the interim? That's all that jumps out to me at a glance as an explanation.

If I had to guess, I'd say it's probably explained by the fact that the group of voters making less than $50k is younger and less white than the group who makes more than that.

Edit: To clarify a bit, I think young and/or minority voters probably hated 2016 Trump more than they liked 2012 Obama.
