While polling data on the rich is imprecise given their small population, polls of the top-earning households favor Hillary Clinton over Donald J. Trump two to one. The July Affluent Barometer survey by Ipsos found that among voters earning more than $100,000 a year — roughly the top 25 percent of households — 45 percent said they planned to vote for Mrs. Clinton, while 28 percent planned to vote for Mr. Trump. The rest were undecided or planned to vote for another candidate.

"We are completely outraged to read about Thiel donating $1.25 million to Trump," Pao wrote in an online post. "While all of us believe in the ideas of free speech and open platforms, we draw a line here.
