7. Sounds like a Zen riddle, does it not?

Engaging the dis-engaged.

Is it due to ignorance of the issues, or voter suppression, or inability to vote?

Studies show that likelihood of voting rises with income, so I feel that suppression and obstacles to voting play a big part. So does education. But that is the why of non-voting, not the how of encouraging engaging.

And the how is what we talk about here.
