In all honesty, what if there was a refundable tax credit for voting or something similar. Wouldn’t even have to be a lot. If you voted, claim $20 or something.
We’d still have a lot of non voters but I bet some would be swayed by being rewarded for voting
Nope, 1/3 of the population never votes. That’s around 100 million people. And neither party has close to 50% of the US population, so it doesn’t come down to a little more than half no matter who wins.
They’d be upset if they could read.
Most of us can, and are also stunned by the dunbass other half of the population
Sure but a lot didn’t care. Less voters this time Trump votes stayed steady so. Lots of people who voted Biden where ok with Trump getting in.
*Slightly less than half
mostof us can, and are stunned by the dumbass other half of the population FTFYRoughly 1/3 of the voting age population.
About 1/3rd of the voting age population do not vote.
We’re outnumbered 2:1
clearly it’s more than half…
It’s not though. Voting is not mandatory and voter turnout in the US hovers only around 35-40% of the eligible population, on the high side.
The non-voters are also dumb.
Hey, that’ll get them to vote!
If a random comment on Lemmy would get a non-voter to vote or not vote then they’re pretty weak willed. Not voting should be a conscious decision.
A little late now.
Maybe we should vote to round them up
😮💨 alright genocide joe. Its time for you to hit the pastures.

And the people that don’t vote don’t matter cause they don’t care either way.
Or they do care but don’t see enough of a difference between parties to matter which is in power
