minus-squareSeasoned_Greetings@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up31·edit-28 months agoI’m from Louisiana. This person is referring to the abysmal voter turnout. They said 20% of the population, not 20% of the voters. Given that only about 36% of the eligible voting population even turned out to vote, this is accurate. With that turnout it literally only takes 20% of the population to enable shit like this.
