What is the US voting turnout in recent years 40% ?
Atrocious.
We don't vote for us, we vote for our families and the vulnerable, hoping they're better off than we ever were.
Guess who is mayor of New York City because less than 10% of the population turned out for the primary three years ago (which is essentially the general election)? bsky.app/profile/riwo...
Three years ago less with than 10% of the city population voting in the primary ... it seems as though if you could mount an effective campaign to get voter turnout just to 15% he'd be gone.
