Ignorance on where or how to vote is not an excuse. You can Google this information. Also, you are prompted to register when you do your taxes.

Now, getting time off to vote may be. Also, long lines in areas that are incompetent and/or deliberately manipulated by political motives is another issue... Young people with jobs often don't have time for that.

Anyone on the entire west coast has ZERO excuse, however, since they mail the ballots straight to you, and you mail them straight back.

I do lament Bernie not getting the primary... I voted in that, and it was a crippling blow to see Joe win it. That said, the current situation isn't Joe Biden's doing. It's a global economic issue. It's true Bernie would be doing more for the lower classes, but there would still be suffering.
