    The problem is, there often more than a million people in that state all thinking the same thing, that their vote doesn’t matter. Well, they’ve self fulfilled by taking themselves out of the equation.

      That’s an unproveable negative, and a strawman. An easy enough target for a crappy argument.

        If only we could all people why they didn’t vote. Oh wait, we have! There’s hundreds of polls asking people their reasons.

        It’s not really unprovable when we know that on average less than 50% of eligible voters actually vote.
