The 360 | Why so many Americans don’t vote
Voting rights is one of the foundational principles of American democracy. The Colonial Era rallying cry “no taxation without representation” was a rebuke of policies that were enacted without the say of the civilians they affected. The struggle to expand and protect the right to vote has been an enduring effort throughout the nation’s history.
The U.S. has one of the lowest voting rates of any developed nation. National turnout hasn’t surpassed 65 percent in more than a century. The numbers are even lower in nonpresidential elections like midterms and primaries. Nonvoters are one of the most significant demographics in deciding American elections. The approximately 4.4 million people who voted for Barack Obama in 2012 didn’t vote at all in 2016.
