Wow in Hamelica only 61% voted in just concluded elections.

The 39% that didn't vote seem to be voters who live in Bright Red or Blue states

the rest may be apathy. As matter of fact I know several African Americans who have never voted and are in the late 40s

They all say nothing but a revolution can fix the system and so they just abstain until if and when there will a revolution

These are very smart and very logical pragmatic individuals

I forgot to up date my numbers, with current totals Trump has ~73 million and Biden has ~78.7

Meaning
31.5% of voting age Americans voted for Biden and 29% for Trump

Framing either as having half the country behind them is bad math
