A lot of people don’t bother to vote. I don’t vote on every issue, because not everything interests me. For example I never vote for judges as they don’t mean nothing to me.

The eligible voters that choose not to vote have outnumbered the turnout of either political party for 100+ years. They dwarf the combined turnout for local and state elections.

The 24 hours news cycle, smart phones and social media condition people to vastly overestimate the number of people who actually care about politics and culture, at least enough to bother voting about it.
