I think the percentage of non voters on THIS site is relatively small.
If you're engaged enough to be active on a democratic website you probably voted. and YEAH.. i know there "was one guy here that said he wasn't gonna vote cause he was a bernie-bro/green-party-sympathiser/clinton-hater..." heard it over and over.

My point is: Big picture, our time and energy would be better spent spreading this message to a larger percentage of non-voters.
