Pollsters employ the 'likely voter' metric. Likely voters, are, by their definition, people who have voted in the past. The big question, the question on everyone's mind, is how many of those who do not usually vote will be stimulated by the Trump candidacy to actually do so? My thinking is that if Trump is even with Clinton in the 'normal' polling parameters, he will garnish something with those energized by his non-traditional, non-politician approach. There is a vast, untapped reservoir of eligible voters out there (something like 40% of the voting age populace). If Trump can strike a chord, it shouldn't even be a contest.
