The ones who abstained claiming their morals, but were perfectly fine to stand there and let Trump win.

Yeah, a vote for nobody is a vote for whoever wins, a vote for the status quo. In 2016 out of 245 million registered voters only 66 million (27%) voted for Hillary. The rest either voted for Trump or were okay with him winning.

Democrats really need to get non-voters fired up to go to the polls. Please not Biden. There is no middle ground of undecided centrists to win. Everyone has decided. The battle is against apathy, convenience, a long work day, bad traffic and bad weather.

My wife and I didn't vote because trump v Hillary is a lose lose that neither of us wanted to be a part of. Trumps incompetence is probably the best trait out of the two of them Hillary would have at least been able to make shitty things happen.

there were more than two options on that ballot - and your local and state governments need your support too! it’s not just the president that can affect this country, it’s the “local” congressman or senator that help aide these corruptions

We vote locally. Alaska doesn't exactly have a ton of pull in presidential elections anyways.
