You mean all those people who got their voting rights removed for whatever reason? The people who are afraid to vote in person because of harassment? The people who cannot afford to take off work an entire day to wait in line? The people who live in a gerrymandered county who feel their vote won’t count anyway? People who have drug charges because of racism and can’t vote?
You mean all those people? You clearly know nothing about how voting in the United States works.
You’re right if you blame the registered voters who chose not to show up in protest because they didn’t like the options. And yes, I think that number would have tipped the scale.

That still leaves plenty of people who could have voted and didn’t. You can try to spin it all you want. Those people are absolutely to blame.
