We live in a corprat-formed bubble contrived to make us THINK certain candidates are somehow left/liberal/progressive and they SO are not. It's great for the corprats. Keeps the status-quo that they garner beaucoup profits from intact.

Hurts everyone else.

Meaning that young voters that have a very high internet usage were a large fraction of the People voting for Hillary in the poll. And elderly voters that Hillary normally has won in huge numbers, represent a smaller fraction of the respondents.
