        Isn’t that ALL non voters do? Blame someone else? I mean, that’s their entire schtick, isn’t it? To do nothing and point the finger at others for the results?

      If you think the results would be different if all people voted, you’re just coping. Vote of half of the society is extremely representative

        It has been studied time and time again. There are simply more registered Democrats than Republicans. If everyone came out to vote, Democrats would win. No question.

          Or maybe registration numbers aren’t representative to the final election outcome?

            That’s the point I’m making, the lack of voting is the problem if dems want to win.
