Only around 50% or less
...of eligible voters actually vote in any election...be it city...county...state or federal elections. I for one think that a non vote is in fact a vote...as the those that do not vote...simply do not care which nominee is elected or which party takes control. I think many people view the two major party nominees as not being that far apart on many if not most of the issues and apply the same thinking to the two major parties. In addition most of the nominees either cannot or will not even try to accomplish what they promise during there run for election and people are aware of this...so their vote becomes a no vote.
BTW...on C-Span I have watched the other fiteen or twenty candidates for the Presidency (that never get a mention in mainstream media) debate on C-Span. People tend to forget that there are multiple parties other than the two major parties.
