MicroWavePew: Even amid high turnout, less than 40% of Americans voted in all three most recent national elections
IllogicalbitConsidering the state of the US, it’s really amazing more people don’t vote.
That’s what happens when you have a presidential election system like the electoral college instead of a popular vote.
Liberal voter in Arkansas? Your vote doesn’t matter. Conservative voter in California? Your vote doesn’t matter.
It’s just the sad reality of a winner-take-all system that places more importance on the geographical size of a state rather than individual voters.
