    I wonder if there’s was anything the people with actual power could have done to increase the number of voters.

      The actual power is held by the voters. The sooner you understand this the better. So you’re asking what the voters could have done to increase the number of voters. And the answer is: the voters can increase the number of voters by voting.

        Ok, so you learned nothing. Enjoy losing to Trump jr in 2032 after Gavin Newsome maintains and expands all of Trump’s policies.

          Correction: so you learned nothing. Remember, this is what you voted for protest-non-voters.

            Listen, I tried to increase the number of voters. I couldn’t dress up genocide and tax breaks for small businesses. I learned you can’t message policy that does the opposite of what voters want into more votes. The only way to get votes is to do what the people you’re asking to vote for you want.

              And we’re back to the start. See video and this is what you voted for protest-non-voters. At this point of going in circles I think I’m gonna peace out.
