Yeah, even though these people don't exist in large gross numbers, it doesn't seem to hard to think of who they might be.  Keep in mind, it doesn't take much to swing a given area that was already under ~60%; in other words, it takes a lot less than you'd think for a 56% Romney suburb to go to 58% Clinton.  Your average stereotype of a rich, White family in the suburbs that had a wraparound driveway and a Romney sign in their yard likely voted for Trump, as well.  The difference seems to be that their neighbors and friends who had never been rabid Republicans but maybe felt the slightest communal pressure to vote that way now feel absolutely no pressure to do so, and perhaps even pressure to not openly do so.

Wealthy, politically moderate Black person in any number of wealthy towns.

Wealthy, educated, religious. Probably grew up in a predominantly white (or at least non-black) area.

A niche subset of these voters if it even exists, but every black Republican who experienced the abuse in Trump real estate.

Maybe a black feminist who bitterly resented Obama snatching the presidency from under Clinton's nose?

Rice is still a Trump supporter, so I doubt she voted for Hillary in 2016 Tongue
