I have problems with people who abstained. The hard thing is, how do you change voter behavior?

It is not completely her fault because voters have agency and accountability.

The larger the group, the more predictable those behaviors are. It's everybody's fault, but she's a single person who could've changed the outcome unilaterally.

I wish I didn't just become more misanthropic knowing people just kinda turn their brains off in crowds. Obviously, that is the situation, and the Dems should've worked with it. But I don't think it's wrong to be frustrated by that either

Yet each individual voter had almost no impact, while she had an incredibly large one.
