Voting is at it’s base a means of information transfer, but it’s also a way to transfer power.
Legislators presidents are not all powerful, but there can be real consequences to who gets to make the rules.
We do not disagree about what is most important. But voting is a gateway to civic involvement. I don’t think people who don’t vote are more likely to organize labor, volunteer, or engage in activism. I think it’s the opposite. Voters are more likely to be engaged and engaged active people are more likely to be voters.
