(11,541 posts)who lean to the left would still not show up to vote, for many different reasons, like maybe they'd be stuck on Twitting all day, or posting meaningless selfies on Instagram, or watching movies, or not knowing where to go to cast their vote, or being denied of their right to vote because they wouldn't know what to do when asked to show up an ID, or they're working two part-time jobs and they don't have a long-enough time break between the two, or they don't have enough gas in the tank to drive there.... or for so many other possible reasons.
What if you did all that, and somehow end up with the same depressing results?
Near 40,000,000 elligible-to-vote-and-leaning-Dems may not be in a position or even just interested enough to get off their bottoms and go vote anyway.
You'd end up with the same results.
Not saying it's not worth to try, though, but the results might not be any different if these voters don't give a f for midterms and never would.
