  • Orrrr…hear me out here

    This is a news article about a set of social media posts and has absolutely no link or relevance to the voting register.

    you know the cool thing about people voting? You know who has voted and in what age group they are. Then you can look at the age group and say things like hmmm wow thats weird there are like 34 million people in the US between 18 and 24, but only 7 million of them voted, I wonder if the other 27 million would have swayed the margin on an election decided by hundreds of thousands of votes

    Young people aren’t participating yet they have the most skin in the game. It’s daft.

    Imo Implement compulsory voting, introduce third parties that can act as a protest vote, watch what the fuck happens. Suddenly the major parties have to be accountable outside their base.
