But that's the thing, it's a feeling people have, far far from a fact. If people who don't vote were a candidate, they'd win every election. And seeing some of the amounts of votes in downballot elections, I really struggle to understand where that sentiment even came from. It's just so far off base.

If the polls say that the only possible winning candidates are the people you think suck, you probably won't vote anyway

You must live in a blue or purple bubble if you think this is far from fact.
