Based on knowledge of math,science, geography, current issues, and party platforms, our currrent electorate IS clueless and tends to make emotional decisions.
Straight party vote = no-brainer vote – you pull the curtain closed, pull the chain, flush and run. We have destroyed most of the basic concepts of democracy.
Those most likely to vote are of the female gender and graduate from college so the vote is informed. Those most likely to blame women for their own short comings are the males of the species. See them at work on the Senate Intelligence (The Lack thereof) Committeee.
Might be more accurate to show a couple of young men with their bongs. Women are the ones who tun out to vote, who organize voters, who manage the polling places and do the groundwork.
Danziger, that is a pretty sexist comic. i find it odd that you choose to use two women for this when women vote at higher rates than men do on average. you seem to fall on the stereotype of the stupid, out of touch, vapid female. You are out of touch. Time for you to retire.
Depends how you feel about this current Republican administration, Congress and Supreme Court. If you are okay with the way the country is going, you don’t have to worry about getting out the vote. But remember, Democrats have to win by over 3 million more votes than Republicans, so if you want something different, yes, you better get out and vote.

The “and stuff” involves not only paying attention, it also involves critical thinking.

We are ignorant not stupid and IMO politicians are content with that status, appealing to emotion rather than logic or facts.
