They didn't manipulate the vote, and saying so without evidence is, well, the kind of bullshit they'd pull if they lost.

So what happened?

~100 million people didn't vote, that's what.

@kel
Do you think it's possible or acceptable to make it a legal duty to vote in the USA?
I know there are those who would argue that to do so breaks 1A, but I do wonder if there might be a way of framing the law to allow for that, such as a "none of the above" or "no confidence" option on all ballots.

I also know that it would not be in the "best interests" of certain groups to pass such a law since it would likely mean they never get elected again.

I'm thinking of Australia. It works.

@stueytheround Nope.

@kel Not possible, not acceptable or both?
