3. Not voting is not an option.

Think about it.

In the states where voter ID laws are being passed; it's not the Democrats who are proposing such laws. There is a very strategic agenda in place by the Republicans to limit who has the ability to vote in elections, and it doesn't benefit the Democrats.

When election turnout is high, Democrats generally win. They win big.

So not voting is not an option.
