Some members of the cast of Hamilton, who delivered a message to Vice President-elect Mike Pence about their fears of the new administration, have abstained from voting for years, records show.
There are no records available for this year, so it's unclear if the cast members voted in 2016, but years prior show many were absent on Election Day. (snip)
RadarOnline investigated whether or not the actors had voted and revealed many leads hadn't in years.
Dixon's records show he didn't vote during president Obama's reelection bid in 2012.
Javier Munoz, playing the titular role of Hamilton, registered to vote in 2006 and voted in the mid-term elections, but hasn't been on record as voting since.
Seth Stewart, who plays Thomas Jefferson, voted in 2008 when Obama ran for the first time. He did not vote in 2012.
Okieriete “Oak” Onaodowan, who players James Madison and Hercules Mulligan, registered to vote in 2005 but hasn't been on record voting since.
Since the clash with the Hamilton cast, Pence told Fox News he wasn't offended by the message and said the booing 'is what freedom sounds like'.

I love the U.K. Daily Mail - doing again and again what the MSM here won't do.
Don’t be down on the bruthas and sistas, voting is just another way to be actin’ white!
I suppose they’re New Yorkers. The incentive to vote is substantially reduced in one-party systems.
Over half of all those arrested in the recent Portland violence never registered to vote anywhere.
how seriously should we take them..?
I am not seeing a downside to this.
IMHO, an awful lot of people should not vote.
Please, encourage them to continue not to vote!
Pence is a class act, but here’s the deal about “booing.” Just because someone has the freedom to boo, doesn’t mean it’s a polite or classy thing to do.
To Britain it’s a social and political interest story about a foreign land that has nothing to do with their own affairs. So they have much less motive to lie about it.
(Another illustration of why globalist government would be so terrible. Whose media would have any reason to tell the truth about anybody?)
Even leftism looks different in Britain. It’s a British leftism. We have an American leftism. Each one looks odd to the other.
Yeah... seems silly that they, with such concern about their political milieu that they’d insert another act in their show to tell off Mike Pence about what he supposedly is doing wrong... wouldn’t vote. Do they even campaign?
Journalism schools used to call that 'Afghanistanism'.
Oh my, kind of reminds you of the “All in the Family” episode when it was revealed near the end that Archie (as of 1972 or thereabouts) had not voted since Nixon versus Kennedy in 1960, lol.
I didn’t know that America’s new raison d’etre was to please the cast of Hamilton.
Anyone going to see a hip hop musical can expect anything, and probably deserves it.
Rush Limbaugh gave historical backgrounder of Hamilton which was very interesting. Perhaps the cast, and more especially the actor who portrays BURR, finds BURR to be the one they would emulate. Think about it. Not a good thought.....
Activists in word only. They have lost the moral right to complain.
Shhh. We do it need to shame them into voting. Duh...
Do not need to.
(F’n spellcheck!)
Does NYC make up it’s jury pools from registered voters? This is often why many do not register to vote.
I have read that people were so terrified of being on juries in the 1600s that the magistrates had to “press gang” whomever they could find for juries. So began the STAR CHAMBER.
Unfortunately, a lot of these nonvoters don’t seem to know when to keep their ignorant mouths shut.
There is no point in voting, New York electoral votes are going to go to the Bolshies by an overwhelming margin.
