I have dubbed them "the Silent Majority". Those who aren't part of the craven, obnoxious and loud "minority" of somewhere between 25% - 30% of the population, who have had the backing of almost all of the "mainstream media" as their megaphone.

Most people are not "politics junkies" and basically try to go about their daily lives... waving away "the hyperbole" that they hear at every election, that rarely resulted in the end of the world as they know it.

But this time is different, when actual actions have occurred that are starting to impact some of the farthest reaches (and least paying attention) of the population.
