Only 37% of eligible American citizens voted in all three of the most recent national general elections, according to a report released Wednesday by the Pew Research Center – even though those elections saw some of the highest turnout in decades. The analysis, which tracked individual Americans’ voting decisions over the past six years, highlights both the limited share of the public that consistently votes, and the degree to which the fluctuations in turnout can alter the electoral landscape. The findings, taken in conjunction with other, sometimes-conflicting sources of election data, help to draw a more detailed profile of the 2022 electorate.
I do agree with this - I think it is a mix of apathy, laziness and ignorance. These people see a Democrat in the White House and then complain why the Dems don;t solve all their problems. We don’t live in a dictatorship. These people don’t understand that the President can’t just decree that something gets done. We need a buy-in from Congress to fund things and within Congress, we will always need to have some level of cooperation between the parties to get stuff done. That’s where twats like Boebert are so dangerous because she, along with most Republicans, will stop at nothing to halt any Democratic agenda from progressing. But average Joes don’t understand that and our useless mass media doesn’t really report on it.
