You know kids are adversely affected by desantis's policy and cannot vote, right? just as a single example.

Theres only ~5 million kids in Florida - that still leaves about 16 million people who are eligible to vote who didn't.

1.4 million in florida have felony convictions, and a disproportionate number are minorities in florida. Then 1.8 million non-citizen immigrants in Florida, from Mexico or Cuba or other places in the Carribean. And that's not including the people that didn't vote because of local efforts of voter suppression, which is a nebulous number but still statistically significant.
