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.
No, the reason trump won was because democrats ran a shit campaign. The party needs to stop blaming everyone but themselves when their garbage candidate fails to motivate voters. If you haven’t noticed, things were already not great before trump entered office and when people hear “but things will get even worse!!” they don’t care because they feel it’s already bad enough as is that it doesn’t matter. They want significant tangible improvement, not “at least we’re not the other guy”.
That’s the thing, republicans will pull all the stops to get what they want when they have power and block democrats when they don’t. Republicans actually fight. Democrats just let things happen, always claiming that their hands are tied (republican hands are never tied, apparently) and on top of that, democrat leaders will claim “we need a strong republican party” and espouse bipartisanship (you know, with the nazi republican party). I, and I’m sure many others, would love a party that actually fights for them.
