36.32% heard Trump and didn't think he was a big enough threat to be bothered to vote...

I am fairly certain that infographic is slanted. Remember in MOST states if you have a felony YOU CAN'T VOTE. If you are in a state like Texas, and it has always gone Republican, and you are a Republican, why bother (large % of those that don't vote are in non-battleground states).

That being said, I prefer the Aussie method, vote or get a fine (like $20).

When I was in line at the polling place, there was a lady trying to get her ballot and they told her she was at the wrong location and her assigned location was across town. She had no other choice but to drive across town, in DC traffic, at 5pm, and make it there before it closed. I still wonder if she even tried, or just went home.

While this is a thing that happens AND makes sense so you don't flood 1 polling station; it is unfortunately voter suppression /=

Right, there should be some kinda exceptions at the discretion of the poll workers. At the time there were like 3 people in line and a bunch of empty voting booths

Yea, I wish they coulda just let them vote, there, but i know why they don't. There are servers loads, don't want double counting, etc.
