90 Million People Didn't Vote

[Ponietz]

The Leopards Eating Faces Party would starve without non voters. It’s viability depends on non voters. Maybe Schumer’s “contrast” will occur when non voters realize their vote makes a difference and commit to performing their civic duty — but it may be too late if their faces get eaten. Next time Boomers are blamed or someone complains the Democratic Party is too centrist — show them this:

Age is also an important distinguishing factor between voters and non-voters. Non-voters in the 2024 election include significantly more younger Americans than 2024 voters. Americans ages 18-29 make up 28% of non-voters vs. 14% of voters and Americans 30-49 are 42% of non-voters vs. 27% of non-voters. Non-voters are less likely than voters to be older Americans: ages 50-64 (18% of non-voters vs. 29% of voters) and ages 65 or older (12% vs. 29%).

There is a pronounced racial divide between voters and non-voters; white Americans are the only racial group that is overrepresented among 2024 voters, while Black, Hispanic, AAPI, and multiracial Americans all accounted for lower percentages of 2024 voters than their representation in the U.S. population. More than seven in ten 2024 voters identify as white (72%), followed by 10% of voters who identify as Black, 10% as Hispanic, 5% as AAPI, and 1% as multiracial. On the other hand, less than half of 2024 non-voters identify as white (46%), while 28% are Hispanic, 16% are Black, 7% are AAPI, and 2% are multiracial.
