        Voting wise, yes-ish, but the disenfranchised people tend to hold opinions from one side or the another anyway, and just don’t bother to vote (which is another completely different problem), plus there’s a few with third-party ideas and fewer still with a ‘let it all burn down they’re both aholes’ mindset in there as well.

        The OP was judging based on the voting results (which these days are very 48-50%/48-50% splits), but condeming the whole population, voters or not.

          Yes. Voting splits can only be considered for the voter turnout and not for general statements of the rest.
