    Do people in the US actually refrain from voting because their candidate is “boring”?

      Ha! Yes. The usual voter participation in a given election is typically 40% or less.

      Yes. Elections in the US aren’t really about convincing people to vote for you, it’s about convincing the people that already like you to actually vote.

      The number of undecided voters or those that actually vote both parties is basically irrelevant. It’s all about getting as many people that support you to actually vote.
