Interesting note, when Abraham Lincoln was voted into office there was an 81% voter turnout rate. Think how much more difficult it was to get to the polling station then, and we had 81% turnout. In the last election in 2008, there was a 56% voter turnout.
Sad.

True, but back then everyone pretty much lived within a block of their polling station.
