I’m definitely not confused. Perhaps we have irreconcilable philosophical differences, but I’m certainly not confused by percentages.

Personally, I would a 30% voter turnout as a damning indictment of the system, particularly when Switzerland was one of the last countries in Europe to legalize women’s right to vote and the right to gay marriage.

For most of the US’s history, most people were simply not allowed to participate in that system and twice this century the winner lost the popular vote. How is it do hard to believe that someone would feel legitimately disenfranchised and frustrated by that system?
