It’s equivalent to people thinking their votes doesn’t count and therefore not showing up. It’s not coincidence bro
When you equate voter turnout to systematic voter suppression (people feeling like their vote doesn't count), you are discounting the many reasons why people are not voting. Some don't vote because they think their vote doesn't matter, yes, but others don't vote because they forgot to vote, or because they didn't care enough to vote, or because they were protesting, or because they didn't get their ballots, or because they didn't register, or because they are ineligible to vote, etc. There are many reasons why people don't vote that don't involve feeling screwed by the current system.
Not only that, but even if 100% of the people who didn't claim that it's because they felt like their vote didn't count, what you're talking about is a subjective perception, not an objective reality.
Everyone's vote counts the same within their state where their state's electors are chosen to vote for the President. That is an objective fact based on the current system. If a person feels like their vote doesn't matter because they are a minority in their state, that is different than their vote not counting.
Typical leftist emotional nonsense.
