This assumption that everyone who doesnt vote would have voted Democrat if they voted always baffled me.
Actually, I would want/expect everybody to vote for whomever they wanted to, Democratic, Republican, Green, Independent, etc. etc.
My saying what I said is to opine that we need an accurate count/evaluation of what the WHOLE country thinks, and not 60ish% of it. And something tells me that if everybody voted, we wouldn't have a 49/49/2% pattern of the choosing who would lead.
