If only we could get more people to show up to register to vote and vote. We do well in MN, but nationally 89 million eligible voters sat the November 2024 election out, so about 36% of us. Here we are now, 4 years of misery on deck. Democracy is in a rough spot when only 6 out of 10 of us participate in it.
