    You mean as long as voter suppression tactics continue to deny a lot of people their right to vote including by making voting inaccessible and/or unfair? Hopefully despite that people can rally and fight against it and use their rights and vote?

    To the extent that that is a factor affecting a person’s actual ability to vote, yes, that is what I mean, thank you.

    However: by and large, that is not why Americans don’t vote.

      “A lack of time” from your article as the third reason - that’s literally voter suppression. That’s explicitly what I referenced in my comment. You proved me right with your source. I also am not 100% positive that YouGov can conduct the type of research and polling needed to even BE a source for this topic anyway though.
