The “giant Palestine protest non-voter” is a myth. Same as blaming third party voters. Voter turn out was actually comparable to 2020. These are insignificant compared to the demographic shifts observed this election cycle.
Also, it feels a bit icky to see so many people use protesting a genocide as a strawman “gotcha” for why the Democratic Party collapsed in an election cycle once again. Harris having 100 days to campaign because Biden didn’t drop out soon enough, the DNC being at odds behind closed doors, hell the RACISM/SEXISM problem America as a whole has (white people as a demographic still majorly voted for Trump across the board, while also citing there is no racism problem in America).
Here’s the PBS interactive graph I used to base my claims. Take a look and play around with the graphs. A lot of my preconceptions from reading MSM “left wing” corporate media regarding the “protest vote” was thrown out once I looked at the stats.
