Perhaps those that care about politics are the ones with which politics gets discussed? Unless you’re sitting down and going “so that trump, huh?” With every person you meet.
That doesn’t speak to my point at all. I’m saying you can’t tell how well a system works when it barely has half the participation it’s supposed to have, and is constantly fucked with. This is the direct result of Republican interference in Texas, no conspiracy theories required.
Be a lot easier to discuss how well things worked if everyone participated.

40% of voters in Texas didn’t vote in November.
Gen X in Texas at least doesn’t seem to vote much if at all.

Be a lot easier to participate if anybody’s vote actually mattered. Literally worthless vote where I live.
I “wasted” my vote on Cornell West in the presidential category. Doesn’t matter at all.
Well, when you don’t vote you’re guaranteeing your opinion doesn’t matter. The math always works in favor of everyone voting.
