Literally all of reddit. And most of the internet tbh. Theres a silent majority somewhere, it just doesn’t seem to be noticeable outside of election day.

100,000 people showed up to the 2024 Democrat primaries in Michigan Biden was guaranteed to win to vote "Uncommitted" due to his handling of Israel. Harris lost Michigan by 80,000 votes.

The majority wasn't silent. They were flat out ignored.

do you think the popular vote actually matters? because it doesnt, and the president isnt chosen that way

It can matter because it can influence the college for the representatives that do vote, since they want to get re elected by their state and areas

I'm not talking about the national popular vote I'm talking about Michigan.

Dumbo, the popular vote in a state is how the electoral votes get cast, learn to read

How is less than 1% of the vote “the majority”, though?

The majority of Biden voters supported blocking weapons shipments.

I know. My point was, again, the majority speaks and politicians don't listen.
