Yeah, sorry, not voting is not influencing the outcome. It’s literally choosing to have no influence on the outcome.
The rest is pretty arrogant, don’t you think? Maybe people don’t buy that the Democrats genuinely care about the causes they claim to if they’re willing to lose those voters? Maybe you shouldn’t?
Shades of Biden’s “they ain’t Black” comment though. Kudos.

How is not voting not influencing the outcome? At some point, an indecision is a decision.
If under 30’s don’t vote (the most likely to abstain), then their needs will never never be considered. Even if you put in a fake name, at least it shows that one is willing to vote for a candidate. Why do you think politicians cater to people over 70? Because they’re the largest voting block.
But, may as well let other people choose for you, I guess.
