That's not quite how politics works in the US. The minority of the population actually votes, approximately 30% of those eligible. It's the majority of the minority who determines the outcome. If that major-minority just so happens to be better organized or that mindset feels that their vote makes a difference, then there's a far greater chance that their voice will rule.
Place polar issues, such as reproductive choice and rights for same sex couples, in front of a well organized, Protestant, "conservative," white, Anglo-Saxon, "major-minority" and you have a recipe for grossly lopsided election results, no matter how dim a bulb is presented as a candidate. > hah, wonder why most people disagree him y still majority people vote > him?
