Are you going to be in the 40% who lets the 31% decide who's going to be elected?
If you are among those who stay away in elections, then a majority of a 60% turnout is less than 31%. Too many media outlets use "landslide" when the victor receives 55% of the vote. If the turnout is only 60%, then the victor only received 33% of the eligible vote.
If these figures were reported more often, then maybe the "winners" would have less hubris when they take office.
Always vote because all votes count!
