40 million fewer people expected to vote in 2018

The study, conducted by the Washington-based research firm Lake Research Partners and released by The Voter Participation Center, found that among the 40 million Americans expected not to vote in 2018, nearly two-thirds are considered part of the "Rising American Electorate" (RAE) – a block consisting of millennials, unmarried women and people of color, who account for more than half of the country's eligible voters.

Among the states projected to be the hardest hit by dwindling RAE voter turnouts are Nevada, North Carolina and Virginia. That drop off, Lake Research President Celinda Lake, a Democratic pollster, said, could have a heavy impact on some races.

2018 are midterms. Voter turnout is historically low during the midterms especially among Democrats.

“We are looking at nearly 40 million missing voters in the 2018 election,” Lake said in a statement announcing the study's release. “These are record high numbers, and, particularly in this upcoming election cycle, expected drop-off voters can make or break races.” The voter drop offs could be particularly influential in states like Nevada and Virginia, both of which have Senate races in 2018.

Interesting considering how close NC and VA were in the national election.
However besides NC I don't see many millennials living in Va and Nevada.. I could be wrong.

The truth is, we've become a nation where a significant percentage of the electorate only turns out when they perceive that their vote will somehow screw over their enemies.

Duh.
It's all the illegals that have been deported.

Oh, nm. I thought it was a thread of how the Dem's couldn't use the dead and illegal votes anymore.

When do we reach out to the Russians to start on collaboration2018?

Still too many.
Talk to the average voter, then realize that half of all voters are dumber than that.

Good. Most people are too dumb to be voting. You should have to pass an intelligence test and the citizenship test before you are considered a voting citizen. Also you should only be allowed to vote if you pay more in taxes than you get in government assistance

This is why our Founding Fathers created the Electoral College. All we did is warp and screw it up.

Millennials, which the report defines as people between the ages of 18 and 34, will see the biggest decline in voter participation, with 17.2 million fewer people casting ballots.
