re: #287 Obdicut

Actually, actions to depress voter turnout tend to be from the GOP side, since they do better when voter turnout is lower overall.

I agree with you that it’s civic responsibility to know the date of the election, but radio ads and all that are just one piece of information. If you’ve got this flyer lying around the house, it still may confuse you.

And it’s part of a pantheon of attempts, which is why it’s infuriating.

So why so little effort from the Democrats to educate the public? It all seems focused on symptoms instead of cure. I still think both sides perceive an advantage to the lack of education. It’s a fight to get the most apathetic, uninformed and disengaged voters to vote… something.
