That .46% still represents individuals who voted Democrat in the primary, but indicated non-commitment to any candidate as a way to voice their positions.
You cannot in sound faith compare the uncommitted turnout to the general loss margin and draw conclusions without further data, though I respect the inquisitive approach in doing so.
It is good to note the increase, as you have here. To use the increase as an attack or blame, as others have elsewhere, is ignorant and bigoted.
Then what conclusion is meant to be drawn in this meme by bringing that data point up?
To expose the hypocrisy in people group A (white voters) getting less attack and blame than people group B (Arab American voters et al), despite being two orders of magnitude larger.
In other words, to expose leftist infighting that disproportionately benefits the status quo and could lead to unjustified xenophobic violence. Thanks for your question. :)
I’ve been arguing for years with my dipshit white Trump voting family and acquaintances.
I expect it. They’re dumb as shit.
Now I have to worry about supposed progressives voting in such a way so as to bring about another Trump/conservative presidency?
This is exhausting.
To just be very clear again, that did not happen. Some ~10million voters had extreme apathy, and that incredibly tiny fraction of “supposed progressive voters” did not effect the outcome. If you believe they did, you are unfortunately falling for propaganda.
