Despite all the brouhaha surrounding the 2020 US presidential election, not everyone--believe it or not--plans to vote. According to Business Insider, Americans who have chosen not to vote fall into six general categories. The first has to do with accessing the polling place: lacking time, transportation, child care, or problems with getting registered to vote. The second group could be named the 'Why bothers?' These people feel their votes don't count, the election is rigged, or their state has a lock on the opposing party. The third group can't vote because they're not allowed to. Perhaps they are felons, or are not US citizens, or owe outstanding fines. The fourth group won't vote because they dislike both candidates. The fifth group just doesn't feel like voting, and the sixth group cited religious or other reasons.
