It's my understanding that 82% of the voters in Houston stayed home,
or went to work, but didn't Vote. There's a lesson in there somewhere.

That’s appalling. The Founding Fathers would weep to see how we’ve squandered the franchise they bled to give us.

It also underscores the importance of get out the vote campaigns. Every single one counts. The final sin of the many Romney committed was abandoning his GOTV efforts on Election Day. He believed the “un-skewed polls” lie and figured since he had it in the bag he needn’t bother with the bothersome work.

Every vote counts. Every single one.
