In 2012, there were 211 million persons of voting age. 122 million, 57% voted. Like most recent elections, the vote was split about 50%. That means there are 60 million Democrats. Or put another way, there are about 90 million that don’t care enough to vote, 50 million that go along with the Dem line and 12 million hard core liberals.
