      We did get a lot of people to vote, the low IQ majority decided to make Trump president.

        There were about 258mil adult citizens in the USA in 2021( the last year I easily found statistics for), about 248mil of them are ‘eligible’ to vote. In the 2024 election, about 155mil ballots were cast.

        Sure sure… 155mil isn’t a small number, but it’s nowhere near everyone. 60% of the adult population is a far far cry from universal participation.

        Power to the people, just wish we’d wield it.
