    I mean your sample is not really representative of the entire US population, so who knows what’s going to happen. I personally know no one who is not going to vote because, that would just be stupid to not participate in the democratic process.

    A person’s opinion does not matter if they do not vote, at least to those in power. 200 million people could not vote ‘in protest’. Doesn’t matter. Just means it’s that much easier for a bad candidate to take power and gain more control of the executive, legislative, and judical branches of govt that controls many aspects of our lives.

      But what are the chances that one person hangs out with three people who have similar opinions? Sounds impossible if you ask me.
