I have problems with people who abstained. The hard thing is, how do you change voter behavior?

    I will never look down on someone who voted or refused to vote because of thier conscience.

    You should. They only bring about worse situations at best. Pretending to be moral when what you’re doing is the opposite is pure hypocrisy.

      Remember, the most constructive thing you can do is get mad at other, equally powerless people like yourself! This is how political change happens.

          that’s a good point

          I wonder what would happen if the Democrats tried to activate those chronic non-voters, rather than trying to flip those moderate republicans i keep being told are real

            Removing your support from a party you previously supported is an effort to bring about change. Evidenced by the democrats trying to figure out how to get people to vote for them again.

            I bet you think divorce is a bad thing too.
