Voter turnout is terrible. Protesters aren't voting.
Samantha Bee just did a piece on it tonight.

(68 posts)We won the Delaware 10th Senate seat, but it ended up costing $100 per vote just to get a 35% voter turnout!

If people were flooding all these small elections, politicians would be freaking out.
